Calculation of amortization per year

$\begin{array}{rcl}\mathbf{Amortization}\mathbf{}\mathbf{per}\mathbf{}\mathbf{year}& \mathbf{=}& \frac{\mathbf{Unamortized}\mathbf{}\mathbf{discount}}{\mathbf{Bond}\mathbf{}\mathbf{amortization}\mathbf{}\mathbf{year}}\\ & \mathbf{=}& \frac{\mathbf{\$}\mathbf{27}\mathbf{,}\mathbf{000}}{\mathbf{10}}\\ & \mathbf{=}& \mathbf{\$}\mathbf{2}\mathbf{,}\mathbf{700}\end{array}$
