Discounted Notes

A note is a written agreement to pay to the buyer of the note a sum of

money plus interest. Notes do not have periodic coupons, since all

interest is paid at maturity. A discounted note is a note that is purchased

below its face value. The following equations find the price or yield of a
discounted note. The calendar basis is actual/360.

PRICE = the purchase price per $100 face value.
YIELD = the yield as an annual percentage.
RV = the redemption value per $100.
DISC = the discount rate as a percent.
SETT = the settlement date (in current date format).
MAT = the maturity date (in current date format).
