Index Amoritizing Swap

An accrued or range note is a financial instrument whose payments are linked to an index within a certain range. Within the range, payments are made at a certain rate; outside, at another rate. The range may vary over time. The interest payments are accrued on each business day.

To be more precise, divide the financial year into Freq. periods. Within each period, define:

I = ( Number of days index is within range / Total number of days ) * Inside Rate

O = ( Number of days index is outside range / Total number of days ) * Outside Rate

The payment at the end of the period is defined to be
Notional Amount * ( I + O + Index * Leverage ) / Freq.
The dialog window for an accrued note is shown below, with sample data entered. The user can enter different ranges in the spreadsheet section.
