Accounting Treatment

The value that you select from this drop-down list determines which set of accounting templates on the Accounting Templates page to use when generating accounting events for the deal. You can create additional accounting treatment types by adding or modifying translate values for the TRA_ACTG_TREATMENT field by using PeopleSoft Application Designer.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) defines these options:

Available for Sale: Indicates that the deal could be sold before its maturity date.

Held to Maturity: Indicates that the deal will be held until its maturity date.

Loans and Receivables: Indicates that the deal is a loan that is granted by the enterprise's treasury.

Trading: Indicates that the deal will likely be sold before its maturity date.

Other: Indicates that items do not fall within the previously listed parameters.

Amort Method (amortization method)

See Defining an Amortization Method for an IRP or IR Swap Deal

Business Day Convention

For the purposes of calculating interest, a business day convention is used for establishing the beginning and end of interest periods. The options are:

• Following: If the date of interest period begins or ends on a weekend day or a holiday, then the first business day following the date is used.

• Modified Following: The same as Following with the exception that if the date falls on the end of the month, then the last business day of the month is used. For example, if the end of the period falls on a Saturday and it is the end of the month, then the previous Friday is used.

• Previous: If the date of interest period begins or ends on a weekend day or a holiday, then the last business day before the date is used.

• Modified Previous: The same as Previous with the exception that if the previous day falls on the end of the previous calendar month, then the first business day of the current month is used.

Cash Flows

Click to view the cash flows that result from this deal.

This button initially generates cash flows if none exist. After cash flows have been generated—and if the parameters of the deal have not been changed—clicking this button displays the previously generated cash flows.

The existence of the Cash Flow button is dependant upon the instrument type that is selected.

Compound Frequency

Define at what interval the interest compounds.

Day Count Basis

Select a day count basis. Values are:

30/360: Assumes that a year consists of 12 months with an equal length of 30 days. A special rule applies when you are dealing with the end of a month.

30E/360: Assumes that a year consists of 12 months with an equal length of 30 days. This is also known as Euro 30/360.

Note. The difference between the 30/360 calculation and the 30E/360 calculation occurs when a period ends on the 31st but did not start on the 30th or 31st. In this case, the 30/360 calculation uses the 31st day as equal to 31, while the 30E/360 calculation uses the 31st day as equal to 30. For example, using the 30/360 calculation, the period starting December 1 and ending December 31 contains 30 days. Using the 30E/360 calculation, however, the same December time period contains only 29 days.

Actual/360: Assumes that a year consists of 360 days, but the months are counted as actual calendar days.

Actual/365: Assumes that a year consists of 365 days, but the months are counted as actual calendar days.

Actual/Actual: Assumes that the number of days between two dates is the actual number of calendar days.

Day Counted Interest

Select to have the system use the actual number of days between interest dates to calculate interest payments. If you select this value, then select Use Actual Interest Dates or Use Nominal Datesto determine which interest dates to use when calculating interest payments.

If you select Use Nominal Dates, the nominal interest dates (the interest dates before adjusting for nonbusiness days and weekends) determine the amount of the interest payment. If you select Use Actual Interest Dates, the actual interest dates (the interest dates after adjusting for nonbusiness days and weekends) determine the amount of the interest payment.

Deal Status

This field has the default value of Open until you change it. The security level dictates whether you can change this value. Open deal status is the standard for preapproved deals or deals that require approval. Values are:

Deactivated: Indicates an open deal, erroneously entered and canceled.

Forecasted: Indicates a forecasted transaction.

Matured: Indicates a contractual deal past its maturity date.

Open: Indicates an active and open contractual deal. This is the default status for all deals.

Sample: Indicates a sample-only deal; do not use as an actual deal transaction.

Sold / Bought Back: Indicates a deal sold that is to another counterparty or bought back from the counterparty.

Under Negotiation: Indicates a deal that’s in the process of being entered or preauthorized.

Partially Sold / Bought Back: Indicates a part of a deal that is sold to another counterparty or bought back from the counterparty.

Deal Test

If not, the Deal Checking page displays the conditions that were not met. You can use this function only if a deal exists in a position tree to use this function. A deal exists in a tree if you select the Deal Must Exist as a Leaf check box in the Tree Wide Options page.

See Specifying IRP Deal Details.

See Defining Position Limits.

Description

For a single line instrument or for futures, if the Description field is blank, the system populates the description when you save the deal. Leave the Description field blank, enter all deal specifics, save the deal, and then edit the system-generated description according to your requirements.

Exclude from Position

Select to exclude this deal from position analysis. Use this as a flag when you set up selection criteria in position analysis. When excluding a position from position analysis, you must add a selection condition to the top node of the position tree. For example:

EXCLUDE FROM POSITION Not Equal Y

Fees

Click to access the Fee Entry page to enter fees that are associated with a deal. The existence of the Fees link is dependant upon the instrument type that is selected.

See Creating Fee Entries.

First Coupon Period

You must select a value for this field if you selected the Same Interest for each Period option.

Define the term for the first interest payment. The values are:

• Long First Coupon Period: If, based on the payment scheduling, the first coupon due date arrives before a full payment period has elapsed, the payment is held until the next coupon due date and combined with the payment due for that full period. For example, if the payments are scheduled for the end of each month, and the deal is executed in the middle of the month, the first coupon is due at the end of the following month, thus creating a long first coupon period of one and a half months.

• Normal First Coupon Period: The coupon period commences on the day that the deal is executed and the first payment is due at the end of one full period.

• Short First Coupon Period: If, based on the payment scheduling, the first coupon due date arrives before a full payment period has elapsed, the initial payment is made regardless. For example, if the payments are scheduled for the end of each month, and the deal is executed in the middle of the month, the first coupon is paid after only a half of a normal coupon period has elapsed.

Forwards from Issue Date

See Interest Date Rule

Index Margin

For interest calculations, the index margin is the value that is added to the reset index, or the value by which the reset index is multiplied. Use the Margin Operator field to specify whether the interest calculation involves adding or multiplying of the index margin value.

Interest Calculation

Specify the method to use to calculate interest from the:

Discount to Yield: Select for discount securities that are quoted using a money market yield. This method uses the rate to derive the settlement amount. The difference between the settlement amount and the par amount is the interest.

Interest Bearing: Select for interest-bearing instruments. This method calculates interest for each period and pays interest on each period end date.

Straight Discount: Select for money market instruments that are quoted on a straight discount or discount rate basis. This method uses the rate to calculate a discount amount, and then subtracts this amount from the par amount to obtain the purchase price or settlement amount.

Interest Date Rule

Select an interest date rule to use to define how interest is calculated and when payments will be paid. Depending on the values that you select in this list, complete the related fields. Values are:

• No Interest Date Rule:No predefined calculation is used for determining interest.

• Backwards from Maturity Date: Interest is calculated starting from the maturity date backwards toward the issue date. This is used for instruments such as treasury bonds that have a final maturity date after which no further interest is accrued.

• End of Month:

  Select to indicate that interest payments will be paid at the end of each month. Enter a numeric equivalent in the Coupon Month field for the first month that interest will be paid.

• Forwards from Issue Date: Interest is calculated beginning from the issue date and going forward to the maturity date.

• Nth Weekday: Enter a week and day for which the interest period will end. For example, select Nth Weekday, Third in the Nth Week field, and Friday in the Weekday field to designate that the end of the interest period will always fall on the third Friday of every month.

• Override Month and Day: Select Override Month and Day and enter a month and day to designate when the interest period ends. For example, enter 10 in the Coupon Month field and 23 in the Coupon Day field to indicate that the interest period ends on the 23rd day of every month beginning with the month of October.

Interest Dates

The values are:

• Use Nominal Dates: Determines the amount of the interest payment based on the interest dates before adjusting for nonbusiness days and weekends.

• Use Actual Interest Dates: Determines the amount of the interest payment based on the interest dates after adjusting for nonbusiness days and weekends.

Interest Frequency

Select an interval that reflects the cash flow frequency for the deal. Options are Annual, At Maturity, Every 28 Days, Every 35 Days, Every 49 Days, Monthly, Quarterly, Semi-Annual, and Weekly. In the Compounds field, define how frequently this interest interval compounds. Options are Annual, At Maturity, Every 28 Days, Every 35 Days, Every 49 Days, Monthly, Quarterly, Semi-Annual, and Weekly.

Interest Period Start Date

The Interest Period Start Date and Issue Date fields display the settlement date by default for both investments and debt instruments. In the case of investments, the interest period start date can be changed to a date in the past. The system then calculates the purchased interest.

Instrument Notes

Click to access the Show Treasury Instrument Notes page to review notes about the deal's underlying instrument. This text field is for reference only; you cannot modify the notes.

Last Coupon Period

You must select a value for this field if you selected the Same Interest for each Period option.

Define the term for the last interest payment. The values are:

• Long Last Coupon Period: If, based on the payment scheduling, the maturity date arrives before a full payment period has elapsed, the final full coupon period is combined with the remaining partial period. For example, if the payments are scheduled for the end of each month, and the deal matures in the middle of a month, a long-last coupon period of one and a half months is created.

• Normal Last Coupon Period: The coupon period commences on the day the deal is completed and the first payment is due at the end of one full period.

• Short Last Coupon Period: If, based on the payment scheduling, the deal maturity date arrives before a full payment period has elapsed, the final payment is made based on the length of the partial period. For example, if the payments are scheduled for the end of each month, and the deal matures in the middle of the month, the last coupon is paid after only a half of a normal coupon period has elapsed.

Margin Operator

Select the operation—add or multiply—by which the rate as per the reset index is acted upon by the index margin to calculate the adjusted rate.

Maturity Date

The date on which your deals matures or ends. Enter a date or have the system calculate a maturity date based on the issue date and term that is entered.

Net Deal Settlement Cash Flows

Select this check box if your instrument has more than one instrument base type or contains an interest rate swap, and you require that cash flow from one instrument base type or swap leg net with cash flow from another instrument base type or swap leg.

Payment Date

Select from the following options and enter a value in the +/- Payment Days field:

• Business Days - Paid in Advance: The system calculates a payment for a specified number of days before the interest period start date, excluding days that are specified as nonbusiness days in the PeopleSoft system's calendar functionality. For example, if you specify Saturday and Sunday as nonbusiness days, the system does not include these days and uses a normal business week (Monday through Friday) to calculate the payment date.

• Business Days - Paid in Arrears: The system calculates a payment for a specified number of days after the interest period end date, excluding days that are specified as nonbusiness days on the PeopleSoft calendar functionality.

• Calendar Days - Paid in Advance: The system calculates a payment a specified number of days before the interest period start date, and includes all days—both business and nonbusiness days. For example, if you specify Saturday and Sunday as nonbusiness days, the system includes these days in calculating the payment date.

• Calendar Days - Paid in Arrears: The system calculates a payment a specified number of days after the interest period end date, and includes all days—both business and nonbusiness days. .

Classification

Identifies whether the instrument is for Debt raising or an Investment. This is determined on the Instrument Details page.

If you select Investment, you can complete the Issuer and Guarantor fields on the Deal Detail page.

Issuer and Guarantor

These fields are active only if the following conditions are met:

• The selected instrument base type is Interest Rate Physical.

• The value in the Classification field (on the Deal Detail page) is Investment.

Par Amount

The amount that is paid or received when the IRP matures. For Debt, the settlement amount is the amount that is borrowed on the settlement date. For Investment, the settlement amount is the amount that is invested on the settlement date.

If the deal's amount is amortized, the amortization conditions must be defined.

See Defining Amortization Functionality for IRP and IR Swap Deals

Price % of Par

The system uses the values in the Par Amount and Settlement Amount fields to calculate the displayed value.

Settlement Amount

If this deal is a Debt, the settlement amount is the amount that is borrowed on the settlement date. If this deal is an Investment, the settlement amount is the amount that is invested on the settlement date.

Purchased Interest

Displays the accrued interest as calculated from the interest-period start date to the maturity date.

Discount/Premium

This field is available when the Interest Calculation field is set to Interest Bearing. It dictates how to account for and treat any discount or premium that is associated with an interest rate physical. Select whether you use a straightline or constant yield method to amortize the bond’s discount (or premium). This also affects the calculation method for calculating interest accruals. Options are:

None (blank): The discount amount is added to the interest amount (or, the premium is deducted), and that total is accounted for by using the Treasury accounting event Interest Accrual.

Constant Yield Method: The discount (or premium) amount is separately amortized (accounted for) using the Discount Accrual accounting event. The discount amount (or premium) that is amortized in each period is set so that the sum of the amortization amount plus the interest that is accrued provides a constant rate of interest (yield) when applied to the amount outstanding at the beginning of a period.

Straightline Method: The discount (or premium) amount is separately amortized (accounted for) using the Discount Accrual accounting event. The discount amount (or premium) that is amortized in each period is set so that the total amortized portion equals the total amount of the discount (or premium) divided by the total life of the deal (term) in days, multiplied by the number of days that the deal is outstanding (by using 30/360-day counts if appropriate).

See Accounting Events.

Yield

Enter the annual rate of return on the investment, expressed as a percentage. This field is calculated for interest bearing IRPs.

Initial Reset Rate

This field appears only for floating-rate deals. If you enter an initial reset rate in the Rate field, the system stores and displays it here for the life of the deal. You cannot edit this field.

Estimated Maturity Date

This field appears only for interest-bearing, debt type instrument.

Use this field to amortize the discount or premium to a different schedule based on an estimated maturity date. For fixed-rate deals that use the straightline discount or premium method, enter the estimated maturity date and click the Cash Flows button.

The system builds a table containing two sets of information: the payment schedule, first, the cash flows, positions, and accounting events data for both the maturity date and estimated maturity date; and second, information that is segregated by source code. When the accounting module calculates discount accrual for an estimated maturity date, it uses information from the estimated maturity date side of the table.

Next Interest Payment

Specify whether the next interest payment is:

• Traded Cum-Interest: Payment includes interest.

• Traded Ex-Interest: Payment does not include interest.

Amount

Enter the monetary amounts for this instrument. These amounts are the principal amounts that the system uses to calculate interest payments for an interest rate swap.

Term

If you entered the commencement and maturity dates, the system calculates the term. If you enter a term value, then the system calculates the maturity date by adding the term to the commencement date.

Swap Principals

Select an option to exchange principal amounts on the commencement date of the swap and on the maturity date. Specify Don’t Swap,At Commencement, At Commencement and Maturity, or At Maturity.

Amort Method (Amortization Method)

Select to indicate how the deal is amortized.

See Defining Amortization Functionality for IRP and IR Swap Deals

Note. Defining deal amortization is an optional step, depending on certain deal conditions. As such, establishing deal amortization is discussed in a separate section.

View detailed information about payment dates.

Amort Method (Amortization Method)

Select the method for amortizing the principal to zero or an end principal. Values are:

• Constant Payment: Mortgage-style amortization, where the periodic payments are the same—part principal and part interest. If the principal is paid down early, then the payment still stays the same; however, the term is shortened

  The system generates scheduled payments of the same amount each period—viewable on the Interest and Payment Dates page. Each payment includes part of the principal and part of the interest owed. As the deal matures, the payment percentages change, with the amount paid towards the principal increasing, and the amount paid towards the interest decreasing. (This amortization method is commonly used with loans such as mortgages and automobiles.)

• Constant Term: Mortgage-style amortization, where the periodic payments are the same—part principal and part interest. If the principal is paid down early, then the term still stays the same; however, the payment amount each period is lessened for the rest of the term.

• Factored: Amortization and accretion factors are applied to the principal and the principal is adjusted by that percentage.

  When you select this value, the system amortizes the principal amount using factors that are entered on the Interest and Payment Dates page.

  You must complete the setup of this amortization method on the Deal Detail page before saving and exiting the deal.

• Non Amortizing: The principal is not amortized throughout the life of the deal.

• Fixed Paydown: The principal changes for the term at a fixed percentage every period or by a fixed amount. The fixed paydown option is available only for IR swap deals.

Constant Payment or Constant Term

When you select one of these values, the End Principal fields for the Pay and Receive regions appear on the Deal Detail page with a 0 value by default; you can edit these fields.

Factored

When you select this value, the Beginning Amount and End Amount fields are unavailable. You must complete the setup for this factored swap on the Amortization Details page. The factors can be added on the Interest and Payments pages.

Fixed Paydown

Select this amortization method to make changes to the principal balance (after the system has generated the payment schedule) by amount or percentage. When you select this value, the Percent/Amountfields for the Pay and Receive regions appear on the Deal Detail page.

Factored

To enter a factored value:

1. In the Change Principal region, select Pay or Receive in the Leg field.

2. Enter a payment amount and payment date.
