Syntax

SELECT [westclintech].[wct].[STEPMDURATION](
  <@Settlement, datetime,>
 ,<@Maturity, datetime,>
 ,<@Yld, float,>
 ,<@Redemption, float,>
 ,<@Frequency, float,>
 ,<@Basis, nvarchar(4000),>
 ,<@Coupons, nvarchar(max),>)

Description

Use the scalar function STEPMDURATION to calculate the modified duration for a stepped-coupon bond. Modified duration is calculated as the first derivative of the price with respect to yield multiplied by -1 divided by the dirty price of the bond.

MDURATION=\frac{-\frac{\partial{P}}{\partial{y}}}{p_{dirty}}

Arguments

@Coupons

a SELECT statement, as a string, which identifies the coupon dates and rates to be used in the modified duration calculation. The coupon rate is assumed to be in effect from the associated coupon date to the next greater coupon date returned by the SELECT statement. The last rate is assumed to be in effect from the last date until the maturity date of the bond.

@Yld

the yield for the maturity date passed into the function. @Yld is an expression of type float or of a type that can be implicitly converted to float.

@Frequency

the number of coupon payments per year. For annual payments, @Frequency = 1; for semi-annual, @Frequency = 2; for quarterly, @Frequency = 4; for monthly @Frequency = 12. @Frequency is an expression of type float or of a type that can be implicitly converted to float.

@Basis

is the type of day count to use. @Basis is an expression of the character string data type category.

{"columns":[{"field":"Basis","width":114},{"field":"Day count basis","width":132}],"rows":[{"Basis":"0 or omitted","Day count basis":"US (NASD) 30/360"},{"Basis":"1","Day count basis":"Actual/Actual"},{"Basis":"2","Day count basis":"Actual/360"},{"Basis":"3","Day count basis":"Actual/365"},{"Basis":"4","Day count basis":"European 30/360"}]}

@Settlement

the settlement date occurring within the coupon period of the bond. @Settlement is an expression that returns a datetime or smalldatetime value, or a character string in date format.

@Maturity

the maturity date of the bond. @Maturity is an expression that returns a datetime or smalldatetime value, or a character string in date format.

@Redemption

the redemption value of the bond assuming a 100 par value. @Redemption is an expression of type float or of a type that can be implicitly converted to float.

Return Type

float

Remarks

If @Basis < 0 or @Basis > 4, STEPMDURATION returns an error.

If @Maturity < @Settlement 0 is returned.

If @Settlement is NULL, @Settlement = GETDATE().

If @Frequency is NULL, @Frequency = 2.

If @Basis is NULL, @Basis = 0.

If @Coupons is empty or NULL then coupon rate is assumed to be zero.

Accrued interest is calculated from the previous coupon date to the settlement date.

Previous coupon date is calculated backwards from the maturity date. If the maturity date is the last day of the month, all the previous coupon dates are assumed to occur on the last day of the month.

Previous coupon date <= @Settlement < next coupon date.

Examples

In this example we calculate the modified duration for a bond maturing on 2019-01-15 with the following step-up schedule.

{"columns":[{"field":"column 1","headerClass":"ag-right-aligned-header","cellClass":"ag-right-aligned-cell"},{"field":"column 2"}],"rows":[{"column 1":"2010-01-15","column 2":"5.0%"},{"column 1":"2013-01-15","column 2":"5.5%"},{"column 1":"2016-01-15","column 2":"6.0%"}]}

The settlement date is April 21, 2014, the yield is 4.0% and the redemption value is 100.

SELECT wct.STEPMDURATION(

                            '2014-04-21', --@Settlement

                            '2019-01-15', --@Maturity

                            .04,          --@Yld

                            100,          --@Redemption

                            2,            --@Frequency

                            0,            --@Basis

                            'SELECT wct.CALCDATE(2010,1,15),0.05 UNION ALL

      SELECT wct.CALCDATE(2013,1,15),0.055 UNION ALL

      SELECT wct.CALCDATE(2016,1,15),0.06' --@Coupons

                        ) as MDURATION;

This produces the following result.

{"columns":[{"field":"MDURATION","headerClass":"ag-right-aligned-header","cellClass":"ag-right-aligned-cell"}],"rows":[{"MDURATION":"4.10281510005374"}]}

The SELECT statement in @Coupons can make reference to another table, as in the following example.

SELECT *

INTO #coups

FROM

(

    SELECT '2010-1-15',

           0.05

    UNION ALL

    SELECT '2013-1-15',

           0.055

    UNION ALL

    SELECT '2016-1,15',

           0.06

) n(coupdate, couprate);

SELECT wct.STEPMDURATION(   '2014-04-21',         --@Settlement

                            '2019-01-15',         --@Maturity

                            .04,                  --@Yld

                            100,                  --@Redemption

                            2,                    --@Frequency

                            0,                    --@Basis

                            'SELECT *FROM #coups' --@Coupons

                        ) as MDURATION;

This produces the following result.

{"columns":[{"field":"MDURATION","headerClass":"ag-right-aligned-header","cellClass":"ag-right-aligned-cell"}],"rows":[{"MDURATION":"4.10281510005374"}]}

In this example we have multiple securities with different step-up schedules and we only have the prices which need to be converted to yields for input into the modified duration calculation. For purposes of this example, the coupon schedules are stored in a temporary table, #coups.
