Calculates the yield to maturity for a stepped coupon periodic interest payment security with more than 1 period remaining to maturity. Should be used for bonds with 1 step.
Alternatives:
This routine requires inputs normally provided by other interim routines. The stpd_py_ai routine uses a coupon rate and relevant dates in determining the number of remaining periods to maturity for computing a yield.
Results:
All results are calculated using the industry standard rules or generally accepted practices. The function returns the calculated yield to redemption 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.
