解释:
There are 184 days between coupon payments and 104 days between the last coupon and the settlement date. The accrued interest is
3×104/184 =1.6957
The cash price is 98 + 1.6957 = 99.6957.
题目问:US treasury bond的价格是98,在6月27日交割,年coupon rate是6%,付息日是每年的3月15日和9月15日,求cash price是多少?
付息日之间是184天,最后一次付息到交割是104天,
accrued interest=3*104/184=1.6957
cash price=98+1.6957=99.6957
