DURATION() gives the Macauley duration of a security for an assumed par value of $100.

DURATION(settlement, maturity, coupon, yield, frequency, basis)
DURATION(SettlementDate, MaturityDate, Coupon, Yield, Frequency, Basis)
DURATION() calculates the rate of change of price with respect to yields. It is the weighted average time until cash flows are received.
