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.
| Basis Value | Application |
| 0 (30/360) | Assumes 30 days in each month; 360 days in each year. |
| 1 (actual/actual) | Assumes actual number of days in each month, actual number of days in each year. |
| 2 (actual/360) | Assumes actual number of days in each month, 360 days in each year. |

Usage Notes
If Settlement, Maturity, or Issue is not an integer, it is truncated.
The engine returns an empty cell if:
- Rate < 0.
- Price £ 0.
- 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.
