RPIDURATION
Updated: 05 May 2014
Use RPIDURATION to calculate the duration for a bond that pays regular periodic interest. The duration is calculated as the first derivative of the price of the bond with respect to yield multiplied by -1, divided by the dirty price of the bond multiplied by 1 plus the yield divided by the frequency.
Syntax
SELECT [wctFinancial].[wct].[RPICONVEXITY](
<@Settlement, datetime,>
,<@Maturity, datetime,>

,<@Redemption, float,>
,<@Frequency, float,>
,<@Basis, nvarchar(4000),>)
Arguments
@Settlement
the settlement date occurring within a coupon period of the bond. @Settlement is an expression that returns a datetime or smalldatetime value, or a character string in date format.
@Maturity
the maturity date of the bond. @Settlement is an expression that returns a datetime or smalldatetime value, or a character string in date format.
@Rate
the bond’s annual coupon rate. @Rate is an expression of type float or of a type that can be implicitly converted to float.
@Yld
the yield for the maturity date passed into the function. @Yld is an expression of type float or of a type that can be implicitly converted to float.
@Redemption
the redemption value of the bond assuming a par value of 100. @Redemption is an expression of type float or of a type that can be implicitly converted to float.
@Frequency
the number of coupon payments per year. For annual payments, @Frequency = 1; for semi-annual, @Frequency = 2; for quarterly, @Frequency = 4; for bimonthly @Frequency = 6; for monthly, @Frequency = 12. For bonds with @Basis = 'A/364' or 9, you can enter 364 for payments made every 52 weeks, 182 for payments made every 26 weeks, 91 for payments made every 13 weeks, 28 for payments made every 4 weeks, 14 for payments made every 2 weeks, and 7 for weekly payments. @Frequency is an expression of type float or of a type that can be implicitly converted to float.
@Basis
is the type of day count to use. @Basis is an expression of the character string data type category.

Remarks
· If @Maturity <= @Settlement 0 is returned.
· If @Settlement is NULL, @Settlement = GETDATE()
· If @Rate is NULL, @Rate = 0
· If @Yld is NULL, @Yld = 0
· If @Frequency is NULL, @Frequency = 2
· If @Basis is NULL, @Basis = 0.
· If @Frequency is any number other than 1, 2, 4, 6 or 12, or for @Basis = 'A/364' any number other than 1, 2, 4, 6, or 12 as well as 7, 14, 28, 91, 182, or 364 RPIDURATION returns an error.
· If @Basis is invalid (see above list), RPIDURATION returns an error.
· @Rate is entered as a decimal value; 1.0% = 0.01
· @Yld is entered as a decimal value; 1.0% = 0.01
Examples
In this example we calculate the duration for a bond maturing on 2034-06-15. The settlement date is 2014-05-01, the yield is 2.76%, the coupon rate is 2.50%, the redemption value is 100, the coupon is paid twice-yearly, and the bais code is 1.
