cpnpersz

Number of days in coupon period

Description

NumDaysPeriod = cpnpersz(Settle,Maturity) returns the number of days in the coupon period containing the settlement date. For zero coupon bonds, coupon dates are computed as if the bonds have a semiannual coupon structure. NumDaysPeriod returns a NUMBONDS-by-1 vector containing the number of days in the coupon period containing the settlement date.

.

Required input arguments must be number of bonds, NUMBONDS-by-1 or 1-by-NUMBONDS, conforming vectors or scalars.

example

NumDaysPeriod = cpnpersz(___,Period,Basis,EndMonthRule,IssueDate,FirstCouponDate,LastCouponDate) returns the number of days in the coupon period containing the settlement date using optional input arguments.

Optional input arguments must be either NUMBONDS-by-1 or 1-by-NUMBONDS conforming vectors, scalars, or empty matrices.

Determine the NumDaysPeriod when using datetimes for input arguments.

NumDaysPeriod = cpnpersz(datetime(2000,9,14),datetime(2001,6,30), 2, 0, 0)
NumDaysPeriod = 
183

Determine the NumDaysPeriod when using character vectors for input arguments and the optional argument for EndMonthRule.

NumDaysPeriod = cpnpersz('14-Sep-2000', '30-Jun-2001', 2, 0, 1)
NumDaysPeriod = 
184

Determine the NumDaysPeriod when using an input vector for Maturity.

Maturity = [datetime(2001,6,30) ; datetime(2001,5,31) ; datetime(2001,6,30)];
NumDaysPeriod = cpnpersz('14-Sep-2000', Maturity)
NumDaysPeriod = 3×1

Input Arguments

collapse all

Settlement date, specified as a NUMBONDS-by-1 vector using a datetime array, string array, or date character vectors. Settle must be earlier than Maturity.

To support existing code, cpnpersz also accepts serial date numbers as inputs, but they are not recommended.

Data Types: char | string | datetime

Maturity date, specified as a NUMBONDS-by-1 vector using a datetime array, string array, or date character vectors.

To support existing code, cpnpersz also accepts serial date numbers as inputs, but they are not recommended.

Data Types: char | string | datetime

Coupons per year of the bond, specified as a vector of positive integers from the set [1,2,3,4,6,12].

Data Types: single | double

Day-count basis of the instrument, specified as an integer with a value of 0 through 13 or an N-by-1 vector of integers with values of 0 through 13.

  • 0 = actual/actual (default)

  • 1 = 30/360 (SIA)

  • 2 = actual/360

  • 3 = actual/365

  • 4 = 30/360 (BMA)

  • 5 = 30/360 (ISDA)

  • 6 = 30/360 (European)

  • 7 = actual/365 (Japanese)

  • 8 = actual/actual (ICMA)

  • 9 = actual/360 (ICMA)

  • 10 = actual/365 (ICMA)

  • 11 = 30/360E (ICMA)

  • 12 = actual/365 (ISDA)

  • 13 = BUS/252

For more information, see Basis.

Data Types: single | double

End-of-month rule flag for month having 30 or fewer days, specified as a nonnegative integer [0, 1] using an N-by-1 vector of values. This rule applies only when Maturity is an end-of-month date for a month having 30 or fewer days.

  • 0 = Ignore rule, meaning that a bond’s coupon payment date is always the same numerical day of the month.

  • 1 = Set rule on, meaning that a bond’s coupon payment date is always the last actual day of the month.

Data Types: logical

Bond issue date, specified as a NUMBONDS-by-1 vector using a datetime array, string array, or date character vectors.

To support existing code, cpnpersz also accepts serial date numbers as inputs, but they are not recommended.

Data Types: char | string | datetime

Date when a bond makes its first coupon payment, specified as a NUMBONDS-by-1 vector using a datetime array, string array, or date character vectors.

FirstCouponDate is used when a bond has an irregular first coupon period. When FirstCouponDate and LastCouponDate are both specified, FirstCouponDate takes precedence in determining the coupon payment structure. If you do not specify a FirstCouponDate, the cash flow payment dates are determined from other inputs.

To support existing code, cpnpersz also accepts serial date numbers as inputs, but they are not recommended.

Data Types: char | string | datetime

Last coupon date of a bond before maturity date, specified as a NUMBONDS-by-1 vector using a datetime array, string array, or date character vectors.

LastCouponDate is used when a bond has an irregular last coupon period. In the absence of a specified FirstCouponDate, a specified LastCouponDate determines the coupon structure of the bond. The coupon structure of a bond is truncated at the LastCouponDate, regardless of where it falls, and is followed only by the bond's maturity cash flow date. If you do not specify a LastCouponDate, the cash flow payment dates are determined from other inputs.

To support existing code, cpnpersz also accepts serial date numbers as inputs, but they are not recommended.

Data Types: char | string | datetime

Number of days in the coupon period containing the settlement date, returned as an NUMBONDS-by-1 vector. For zero coupon bonds, coupon dates are computed as if the bonds have a semiannual coupon structure.
