However, it dos several things that would otherwise be extremely difficult or impossible:
- Your timebase need bear no relation to the periodicity of the interest payments. For example, you can have an annual timebase for quarterly interest payments, or the other way around.
- You can schedule in any number of loan advances or small ad-hoc repayments through NetAdvances.
- You have the full daycount accuracy that is usual with Business Functions, so 30/360 interest is fine.
- Your interest rate can vary over time, too.
- Rather uniquely and powerfully, the timing of your interest/principal repayments and the AnnDebtServiceRates need not be the same - you can quarterly reveneue servicing an annual loan.
