Discounted Notes
A note is a written agreement to pay to the buyer of the note a sum of
money plus interest. Notes do not have periodic coupons, since all
interest is paid at maturity. A discounted note is a note that is purchased
below its face value. The following equations find the price or yield of a
discounted note. The calendar basis is actual/360.
