FA-60937 / Bond day-count conventions / Member archive
Act/365L denominator selection: a period starting on 29 February uses a 366-day year · case 02
Annual periods beginning on a leap day and periods ending on one are classified the wrong way round.
Case contract
Inputs start, end ([y,m,d]) and coupon frequency. Days are actual days. For annual frequency the denominator is 366 if any 29 February lies in (start, end], else 365. For other frequencies the denominator is 366 if the end date year is a leap year, else 365. Return days/denominator rounded to 9 decimals.
Why this case matters
Bond accrual and pricing systems depend on exact day-count arithmetic; a single-day error changes settlement cash.
