Definition

Specifies the type of interest calculation.

Use

If you select this checkbox, the interest calculation is exponential. The system uses the following formula:

Interest amount = calculation basis amount * ( q ** (days / basis days) - 1 )

where

q = 1 + percentage / 100 = (compounding factor).

** = power operator

If you do not select this checkbox, the interest calculation is linear. The system uses the following formula:

Interest amount = calculation basis amount * percentage rate / 100 * days / basis days

Dependencies

If you choose exponential interest calculation, you can make an entry in the Interest Settlement Frequency field.
