    Hart Corp.'s note should be reported at $10,000

    Maxx Inc.'s note should be reported at $7,883

    Explanation:

    Interest bearing notes that represent current accounts (due within one year) should be reported at face value. Hart Corp.'s note is due in nine months, so it should be reported at = $10,000

    Maxx Inc.'s note must be recorded at present value because it is due in 5 years.

    FV = $10,000 x 1.03⁵ = $11,592.74

    now we must determine its present value using an 8% discount rate:

    PV = $11,592.74 x 0.680 = $7,883
