Family Guy: Something, Something, Something, Dark Side. A sequel to the Star Wars parody Blue Harvest, this special episode of the unabashedly off-color animated series features the dysfunctional Griffin family and their friends as the characters in The Empire Strikes Back.
What Does Face Value Mean? The face value of a bond, life insurance policy, piece of currency or other financial instrument is the monetary value that is printed or stamped prominently on the item. Face value often isn't how much the item is actually worth, however.
In general, par value (also known as par, nominal value or face value) refers to the amount at which a security is issued or can be redeemed. For example, a bond with a par value of $1,000 can be redeemed at maturity for $1,000. This is also important for fixed-income securities such as bonds or preferred shares because interest payments are based on a percentage of par. So, an 8% bond with a par value of $1,000 would pay $80 of interest in a year.
