public class accrintEx1 {
static final DateFormat dateFormat =
DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, Locale.US);
static private GregorianCalendar parse(String s) throws ParseException {
GregorianCalendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
cal.setTime(dateFormat.parse(s));
return cal;
}
public static void main(String args[]) throws ParseException {
GregorianCalendar issue = parse("10/1/91");
GregorianCalendar firstCoupon = parse("3/31/92");
GregorianCalendar settlement = parse("11/3/91");
double rate = .06;
double par = 1000.;
int freq = Bond.SEMIANNUAL;
DayCountBasis dcb = DayCountBasis.BasisNASD;
double accrint = Bond.accrint(issue, firstCoupon, settlement, rate,
par, freq, dcb);
System.out.println("The accrued interest is " +accrint);
}
}
Output
The accrued interest is 5.333333333333334
