DISC function
PRO
The DISC
function in Jspreadsheet Formulas Pro is a financial tool that helps you determine the discount rate of a security. This calculation depends on the price of the security, its redemption value and the purchase price. Essentially, it's a way to understand the amount by which the price of a security is lower than its face value. This function can be particularly useful for analyzing and comparing the potential profitability of different investment options.
Documentation
Calculates the discount rate for a security based on its price, face value, and coupon rate.

Syntax
DISC(settlement, maturity, price, redemption, [basis])
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
settlement |
The settlement date of the security. |
maturity |
The maturity date of the security. |
price |
The price per $100 face value of the security. |
redemption |
The redemption value per $100 face value of the security at maturity. |
[basis] |
Optional. The day count basis to use for calculating fractional periods. If omitted, assumes a default of US (NASD) 30/360. |
Behavior
The 'DISC' function is used to calculate the discount rate for a security. It requires four parameters: settlement date, maturity date, purchase price, and redemption price. Here's how it handles different types of input:
- Empty Cells: If any of the required fields are left empty, the function will return a
#NUM!
error. All arguments need to be provided for the function to execute properly. - Text: If text is entered in any of the required fields, the function will return a
#VALUE!
error. The function expects dates for the settlement and maturity dates, and numeric values for the purchase and redemption prices. - Booleans: The function does not accept Boolean values. If a Boolean value is entered, it will return a
#VALUE!
error. - Errors: If any of the arguments contain an error, the 'DISC' function will propagate that error.
Common Errors
Error | Description |
---|---|
#NUM! | Occurs when the settlement date is greater than the maturity date, or when the purchase price or redemption price is less than or equal to zero. |
#VALUE! | Occurs if any of the supplied arguments are non-numeric, or if the supplied dates are not valid date formats. |
Best practices
- Always ensure that the settlement date is earlier than the maturity date. If not, the function will return a
#NUM!
error.- Ensure that the purchase price and redemption price values are greater than zero. Negative values or zero will result in a
#NUM!
error.- The dates provided should be valid Excel dates. Invalid dates will result in a
#VALUE!
error.- Avoid using text or Boolean values as inputs to avoid
#VALUE!
errors.
Usage
A few examples using the DISC function.
// Basic usage with default US 30/360 basis
DISC("2023-01-04", "2023-01-31", 99.5, 100)
// Using European 30/360 basis (basis = 4)
DISC("2023-01-04", "2023-01-31", 97.5, 100, 4)
// Longer-term discount bond
DISC("2023-01-01", "2023-12-31", 95, 100)
