Sub UserProc;
Var
    r: Double;
Begin
    r := Finance.
Intrate(DateTime.ComposeDay(2008,01,01), DateTime.ComposeDay(2008,06,01), 1500.51600.40);
    Debug.WriteLine(r);
End Sub UserProc;

Imports Prognoz.Platform.Interop.MathFin;

Public Shared Sub Main(Params: StartParams);
Var
    r: double;
    Finance: FinanceClass = New FinanceClass();
    DateTime1, DateTime2: System.DateTime;
Begin
    DateTime1 := New DateTime(2008,01,01);
