Formula for calculating present value of a promissory note owed to debtor

Debtor has a promissory note with a face value of $100,000. The interest is
already incorporated into it. The $100,000 is to be paid over five years to
debtor. Of course it is uncertain whether the person will pay debtor on the
note. If debtor files chapter 13, I need to be able to value this asset.
Since it is uncertain and is to be paid over five years, is there a
formula to calculate the present value of this asset so I can exempt some
or all of it under the wild card?
Please direct me to the appropriate formula. Thank you.
