1. **State the problem:** Shelly Katz gave Ron Prentice a $4,400 note at 6% interest for 165 days. On May 10, Shelly discounted the note at Roseville Bank at 10%. We need to find the proceeds Shelly receives.
2. **Identify key dates and terms:**
- Note amount (principal) $P = 4400$
- Note interest rate $r = 6\% = 0.06$
- Note term $t = 165$ days
- Bank discount rate $d = 10\% = 0.10$
- Use 360 days per year
3. **Calculate maturity value of the note:**
The maturity value $M$ is principal plus interest:
$$M = P + I = P + P \times r \times \frac{t}{360} = P \left(1 + r \frac{t}{360}\right)$$
Calculate interest:
$$I = 4400 \times 0.06 \times \frac{165}{360} = 4400 \times 0.06 \times 0.4583333 = 121.00$$
Calculate maturity value:
$$M = 4400 + 121 = 4521$$
4. **Calculate days from discount date (May 10) to maturity date:**
Note date: Feb 26
Note term: 165 days
Maturity date = Feb 26 + 165 days
Calculate days from Feb 26 to May 10:
- Feb 26 to Feb 28 = 2 days
- Mar = 30 days
- Apr = 30 days
- May 1 to May 10 = 10 days
Total = 2 + 30 + 30 + 10 = 72 days
Days remaining from May 10 to maturity:
$$165 - 72 = 93$$ days
5. **Calculate bank discount on maturity value:**
Bank discount $D$ is:
$$D = M \times d \times \frac{\text{days remaining}}{360} = 4521 \times 0.10 \times \frac{93}{360}$$
Calculate:
$$D = 4521 \times 0.10 \times 0.2583333 = 116.79$$
6. **Calculate proceeds Shelly receives:**
Proceeds = Maturity value - Bank discount
$$\text{Proceeds} = 4521 - 116.79 = 4404.21$$
**Final answer:** Shelly Katz receives $4404.21$ as proceeds from the bank discount.
