Below table shows the use of Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle Basis} values:

Basis Description
0 US (NASD) 30/360
1 Actual/actual
2 Actual/360
3 Actual/365
4 European 30/365
  • If Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle Basis} value is other than 0 to 4, Calci displays #N/A error message.
  • Formula:

If 'B' is number of days in a year, and 'DIM' is number of days from 'Settlement' to ' Maturity', the DISC is calculated as -

Examples

Consider the following example that shows the use of DISC function:

06/09/2010
11/19/2010
97.975
100
1
=DISC(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) displays 0.045345092024540005 as a result.
