If the Discount Accrual Processing Date is 15-Feb-2003, the processing for discount accrual is as follows:
  1. NPV of the contract is computed as of 15-Feb-2003 by discounting the future cash flows as shown below:

    Table 6-4 NPV of Contract

    - - - - - 951402.94
    The NPV of the Contract as of 15-Feb-2003 = USD 951,402.94
  2. IRR Start date = 01-Jan-2003

    Outstanding Principal as of 12-Feb-2003 = USD 1,000,000

    Discount to be accrued as of 01-Jan-2003 = USD 60,000

    Accrued Interest as of 15-Feb-2003 = USD 4602.74

    Discount Accrued as of 01-Jan-2003 = USD 0.00

    Previous process till date = 14-Feb-2003

    Till Date Accrual as of 14-Feb-2003 (TDAn-1) = USD 6647.43


    Discount

    TDAn = 951402.94 – (1000000-60000)-4602.74+0

    TDAn = 6800.2

    Net Discount Accrual = TDAn – TDAn-1

    Net Discount Accrual = 6800.20 – 6647.43

    Net Discount Accrual = 152.77
