Adjusted payment Note that a schedule can be produced and consulted only after the Calculate function has been activated since it is only then that the program verifies if all the necessary data has been entered MODIFY DATA When the Calculate function has been activated and the program has validated the data the fields are highlighted in gray indicating that they are no longer accessible Therefore a modification of one or several fields can only be done by selecting the Modify data function For example if the calculated nominal interest rate is 11 999999 it is likely that the real interest rate is 12 Note that the calculated rate could be slightly different from the rate stated in the contract because the payment amount is always rounded This reduces the degree of precision in determining the interest rate In this kind of situation the Modify data function lets you enter the real interest rate Once the change is done you have to activate the Calculate function again in order to validate the new data It is important to note that for an annuity calculation once the schedule has been changed skipped payment modification of interest rate new funds advance etc any change of the data will be denied in the data entry window ANNUI T Plus 8 0 PRINT This function lets you print the data entry window If you wish to print a schedule such as a loan amortization schedule

52. be used stays the same for every period However when an irregularity occurs for example a late payment with a 360 days basis interests are not calculated the same way and depend on the lender s policies For example Canadian chartered banks often use a pro rata for this purpose where the Caisses Desjardins use a method based on the concept of daily equivalence within a period The second method uses a 365 or more days in year basis with the assumption that every day has the same importance With this method the periodic interest rate must be determined every time that the interest has to be calculated This rate is based on the real number of days elapsed since the last interest calculation This is why even if the payment frequency is not respected the calculation method remains the same This last method is mainly used when the payment frequency is more than 24 times per year In Canada most of the financial institutions use this method for mortgage contracts when the payment frequency is weekly or every 2 weeks In Canada if the payment frequency is less than 26 times per year for example with a monthly payment frequency the 360 days in year basis is by far the most popular However the general method of the Caisses Desjardins is based on a 365 25 days in year basis but for mortgages with monthly multiple basis payment annual semi annual every 4 months quarterly every 2 months and monthly they use a 360 days
