Diagram values are based on the following:

$N = 4\times 2$

    $= 8 \ Years$

$i = 10.00 \% \times \frac{1}{2}$

  $= 5.00 \%$

$\left\begin{array}{ccc} Cash \ Flow&\ \ \ \ \ \ \ Table \ Value \times Amount& \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ = Present \ Value\\ Principal &0.676839 \times \ 600,000& =\ 406,104 \\ Semi-annual \ interest& 6.463213 \times \ 18,000 & =\ 116,337\end{array}\right$
