bond_ai

bond_ai (routine)

Calculates accrued interest for a bond

Introduced in release: 1.0
Component: Restricted
Purpose: Calculates the accrued interest for a regular bond or odd first coupon bond.

Special Considerations: If the security contains an odd last coupon, use the mtrm_ai routine instead of this routine.

Alternatives: If price and/or yield are required in addition to accrued interest, use the bond_py_ai routine instead of this routine. If price and/or yield, current yield, estimated Macaulay duration, estimated convexity, interest on interest, etc. are required in addition to accrued interest, use the bond_risk routine.

Notes: In addition to accrued interest, other values are returned by the routine - see outputs in Parameter Definition section.

Results: The returned value is the accrued interest per 100 of maturity value, accurate to as many places as supported by a double precision value.

Error Conditions: Returned values should be ignored for a non-zero status. See Errors.
