<h1>ODDFYIELD Function</h1>
<p>The <b>ODDFYIELD</b> function is one of the financial functions. It is used to calculate the yield of a security that pays periodic interest but has an odd first period (it is shorter or longer than other periods).</p>
<p>The <b>ODDFYIELD</b> function syntax is:</p>
<p style="text-indent: 150px;"><b><em>ODDFYIELD(settlement, maturity, issue, first-coupon, rate, pr, redemption, frequency[, [basis]])</em></b></p>
<p><em>where</em></p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>settlement</em></b> is the date when the security is purchased.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>maturity</em></b> is the date when the security expires.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>issue</em></b> is the issue date of the security.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>first-coupon</em></b> is the first coupon date. This date must be after the settlement date but before the maturity date.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>rate</em></b> is the security interest rate.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>pr</em></b> is the purchase price of the security, per $100 par value.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>redemption</em></b> is the redemption value of the security, per $100 par value.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>frequency</em></b> is the number of interest payments per year. The possible values are: 1 for annual payments, 2 for semiannual payments, 4 for quarterly payments.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>basis</em></b> is the day count basis to use, a numeric value greater than or equal to 0, but less than or equal to 4. It is an optional argument. It can be one of the following:</p>
<table style="width: 40%">
<tr>
<td><b>Numeric value</b></td>
<td><b>Count basis</b></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>0</td>
<td>US (NASD) 30/360</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>Actual/actual</td>
