Description |
|---|---|
Seq (sequence) |
Enter a number for each added row of market source information to determine processing order of the valuation. |
Market Price |
Enter the price of the security relative to the par value. |
Purchased Interest |
Displays the interest calculated from the interest-period, start date to the settlement date. This value is important for securities purchased in a secondary market. For example, bonds usually pay interest every six months, but, interest is accrued by the bondholders on a day-to-day basis. When a bond is sold, the buyer pays the seller the market price plus the accrued interest, for which the buyer is reimbursed when the issuer next pays interest. |
