Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Face value =5,00,000= 5,00,000; amount received =4,70,000= 4,70,000.

Discount =30,000= 30,000, which is 30,0005,00,000=6%\frac{30,000}{5,00,000} = 6\%.

Premium on redemption =40,000=8%= 40,000 = 8\% of face value.

Check: Loss on Issue =30,000+40,000=70,000= 30,000 + 40,000 = 70,000, matching the entry. Hence issued at 6%6\% discount and redeemable at 8%8\% premium.
