Description

The OddfYield method returns profit for securities with irregular (short or long) last period.

Comments

OddlYield is calculated using the following formula:

Where:

Aj. The number of accumulated days for the j-th or last quasi coupon period in an irregular period, counted forward from the date of the last payment before maturity.

DCj. The number of days, counted for the j-th or last quasi coupon period, divided by the length of the actual coupon period.

NC. The number of quasi coupon periods, which fits in an irregular period. If this number is fractional, it is rounded up to the next integer.

NLj. Normal length in days of the full j-th or last quasi coupon period in an irregular period.

Fore Example

To execute the example, add a link to the MathFin system assembly.

Sub UserProc;
Var
    r: Double;
Begin
    r := Finance.
OddlYield(DateTime.ComposeDay(2008,04,20), DateTime.ComposeDay(2008,06,15),
        DateTime.ComposeDay(2007,12,24), 0.0275101.8210243
);
    Debug.WriteLine(r);
End Sub UserProc;

After executing the example the console window displays the profit equal to 3.83%.

Fore.NET Example

The requirements and result of the Fore.NET example execution match with those in the Fore example.

Imports Prognoz.Platform.Interop.MathFin;

Public Shared Sub Main(Params: StartParams);
Var
    r: double;
    Finance: FinanceClass = New FinanceClass();
    DateTime1, DateTime2, DateTime3: System.DateTime;
Begin
    DateTime1 := New DateTime(2008,04,20);
    DateTime2 := New DateTime(2008,06,15);
    DateTime3 := New DateTime(2007,12,24);
    r := Finance.OddlYield(DateTime1, DateTime2, DateTime3, 0.0275101.8210243);
    System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(r);
End Sub;
