Explanation:

The difference between the face valeu and the actual price will be the discount or premium being discount, when lower and premium when higher.

500,000 - 487,706.69 = 12,293.31

Effective rate will calculate the interest revenue by multipling the carrying value by the market rate

and the amortization in the discount will be the difference with the actual cash proceeds

Straight-line will divide the discount over the total amount of payments due and do the same amount over time:

12,293.31 / 6 = 2048.885
