Classes

• bbldc::BasicSia30360Neom: SIA-30/360-neom convention stateless functions

Description

This component provides a struct, bbldc::BasicSia30360Neom, that serves as a namespace for defining a suite of date-related functions used to compute the day count and year fraction between two dates as prescribed by the Standard Industry Association (SIA) 30/360 no-end-of-month day-count convention. In this day-count convention (also known as "US 30/360 no-end-of-month" or just "30/360 no-end-of-month"), each year is assumed to have 12 months and 360 days, with each month consisting of exactly 30 days. No end-of-month rule adjustments are applied for the last day of any month (including February).

SIA-30360-neom Day Count Algorithm

Given beginDate and endDate, let:

Ye =  year of earlier date           Yl =  year of later date
Me = month of earlier date           Ml = month of later date
De =   day of earlier date           Dl =   day of later date
 
  o If De is 31, change De to 30.
 
  o If at this point De is 30 and Dl is 31, change Dl to 30.
 
 
daysDiff ::= sign(endDate - beginDate) *
                                  (Yl - Ye) * 360 + (Ml - Me) * 30 + Dl - De

The year fraction is simply the day count divided by 360.

Usage

This section illustrates intended use of this component.

Example 1: Computing Day Count and Year Fraction

The following snippets of code illustrate how to use bbldc::BasicSia30360Neom methods. First, create two bdlt::Date variables, d1 and d2:

const bdlt::Date d1(2004,  9, 30);
const bdlt::Date d2(2004, 12, 30);

Then, compute the day count between the two dates:

const int daysDiff = bbldc::BasicSia30360Neom::daysDiff(d1, d2);
assert(90 == daysDiff);

Finally, compute the year fraction between the two dates:

const double yearsDiff = bbldc::BasicSia30360Neom::yearsDiff(d1, d2);
assert(0.25 == yearsDiff);
