    a: 247.43 interest

    b: 15,039.31 dirty price of the purchase

    Explanation:

    We purchase the note at the quoted price plus the accrued interest at the time:

    accrued interest:

    principal x rate x time

    we express time as a portion of year.

    14,000 x 4.388% x 145/360 = $ 247.4344

    note market price:

    14,000 x 105.65625/100 = 14,791.875

    dirty price:

    principal + interest

    14,791.875 + 247.4344 = 15,039.31
