Irregular final coupon amount: a short final period pays a full regular coupon · case 05

Bonds with a short last period overpay the final coupon.

Case contract

Inputs the last regular coupon date prev, maturity (prev < maturity <= prev + 2 periods), months per period and annual rate. Quasi dates are prev shifted forward k*months with the prev day clamped to month length. c = 100*rate/freq. Short final period (maturity <= q1): c*days(prev,mat)/days(prev,q1). Long final period: c*(1 + days(q1,mat)/days(q1,q2)). Round to 6 decimals.

Why this case matters

Bond accrual and pricing systems depend on exact day-count arithmetic; a single-day error changes settlement cash.
