Syntax

Coupncd <Basis> (Settlement, Maturity, Frequency)

Where:

Settlement is the settlement date. This is the date, after issue, on which the security is traded.

Maturity is the maturity date. This is the date on which the security expires.

Frequency is the number of coupon payments per year. The valid values are 1, 2, and 4 where annual payments =1, semiannual payments =2, and quarterly payments =4.

Basis is a parameter that indicates the time-count basis to be used. The default value for Basis is 0, which is typically used by American agencies and assumes 30-day months and 360-day years (30/360). Possible values for this parameter are listed in the following table.

Usage Notes

If an argument is not an integer, it is truncated.

The engine returns an empty cell if:

  • Settlement or Maturity is not a valid date
  • Frequency is a number other than 1, 2, or 4
  • Settlement ³ Maturity

The Settlement date and the Maturity date should be included within single quotations in the expression for the expression to be considered as a valid expression.
