FA-61145 / Bond day-count conventions / Member archive
Inflation-linked reference index interpolation: the reference CPI is truncated instead of rounded · case 05
Reference indexes and the ratios computed from them are low by up to one unit in the fifth decimal.
Case contract
Inputs a date [y,m,d], a map "YYYY-MM" to CPI level and a base index. RefCPI = CPI(m-3) + (d-1)/days_in_month(m) * (CPI(m-2) - CPI(m-3)), computed in Decimal and rounded half-up to 5 decimals; the index ratio is RefCPI/base rounded half-up to 5 decimals. Return both as strings.
Why this case matters
Bond accrual and pricing systems depend on exact day-count arithmetic; a single-day error changes settlement cash.
