Promissory Notes

A promissory note is legal document showing a promise to pay agreement.A note is non-interest-bearing if the maturity date is specified instead of the principal and the interest rate.A note bears interest if it specifies the principal, the term, and the interest rate.


In this type of problem you are given the maturity value, the sale date, the due date, the discount rate, and you are asked to calculate the sale price.

Use the discount proceeds formula

P = S(1-dt)

Amount = maturity value of the note

Term = the term from the sell date to the date when the note matures

Discount rate = discount rate

Discounting Non-interest-bearing Notes


Three transactions:

1) The borrower takes out a loan from a lender

2) The lender sells the note to a third party

3) The borrower pays back the loan to the third party

Usually, the first transaction bears simple interest.

The second transaction uses discount interest.

Discounting Interest-bearing Notes


Step 1) Calculate the maturity value of the note

Step 2) Calculate the sale price

Step 1) Use the future value formula

S = P(1+it)

Step 2) Use the discount proceeds formula as in the case of non-interest-bearing notes.

P = S(1-dt)

Discounting Interest-bearing Notes


A $1,000 promissory note, due in 270 days bearing 5% interest is sold after 130 days to a bank charging 8% discount interest.

How much does the bank pay?
