The Change Accrual update [U0215] is used for interest bearing loans (IBLs) to change accrual method, base rate and/or loan rate at a midpoint of the term. For example, the accrual method could be changed from a fixed to a floating method or vice versa. Permitted accrual method changes are:
AIXx (adv P + I fixed) | AIFx (adv P + I floating) |
RIXx (arr P + I fixed) | RIFx (arr P + I floating) |
AAXx (adv P&I fixed) | AAFx (adv P & I floating) |
RAXx (arr P & I fixed) | RAFx (arr P & I floating) |
where x is 0, 5, 6, or E. If the method is changed from fixed to floating, the user must enter the new method, base rate, and add-on percentage. If the method is changed from floating to fixed, the user must enter the new method and a fixed rate. The base rate information is cleared.
After any accrual-related change, interest from the effective date to the current accrued to date is recalculated and adjustments are made, as necessary.
The base rate on which the IBL floats may also be changed through this update. Interest rate (fixed loans) or add-on rate (floating loans) may also be changed.
The effective date of any accrual change is assigned by LeasePak to be the most recent payment effective due date. For example, if the current date is 10/15/95 and payments are due monthly on the first, the effective date of any accrual change will be 10/01/95. The earliest that accrual may be changed for 10/01/95 is on 10/01/95.
Change accrual process cannot be applied to IBLs in non-accrual status.
For subsequent functions after a Change Accrual has taken place, the latest information will be assumed to be original information. In the above example, if an accrual reversal is performed to a date prior to 10/01/95, the changed information will be used in the accrual reversal calculations. To avoid that, accruals may be reversed to 10/01/95, the accrual information changed back to the loan's original values, and then accruals reversed to the desired date.
This screen is used to indicate the lease whose accrual method is to be changed. The lease must be an interest bearing loan.
This screen is used to change the accrual method and related information. The current accrual method (code and expanded name), base rate (code, expanded name, value), rate, and effective date of any change are displayed.
Specify the percentage of the base rate to use as the floating rate for the loan. You can specify a base rate percentage or an add-on rate, but not both. Default value is 100%.
Refer to the overview document Commercial Loan (opens in a new window) for more information on features of the Commercial Loan Module.Specify which day of a given month to use in beginning to choose rates from the rate table. Valid values are 0 through 31. Select '0' (default value) to use current LeasePak behavior, which is to use rates individually. This field works in conjunction with Next Rate Set Month--if you set this field to '0', you must also set Next Rate Set Month to '0'.
Refer to the overview document Commercial Loan (opens in a new window) for more information on features of the Commercial Loan Module.For regular quarterly (QTR), semiannual (SEMI), or annual (ANNL) payment schedules, specify the start month(s) of the periodic cycles. For example, to specify the beginnings of Q1-Q4 as July, October, January, April (in that order), select '7'. To specify a first half-year beginning in September and a last half-year beginning in March, select '9'. This field works in conjunction with Next Rate Set Day--if you set this field to '0', you must also set Next Rate Set Day to '0'.
Refer to the overview document Commercial Loan (opens in a new window) for more information on features of the Commercial Loan Module.Specify how often to check the rate table for changes. If Next Rate Set Day and Next Rate Set Month are '0', you must select either 'DAY' (check daily) or 'NONE' (default--also checks daily). If Next Rate Set Day/Month are not '0', you can select anything but 'DAY' or 'NONE'. The other options are 'MON' (check monthly), 'QTR' (check quarterly), 'SEMI' (check semiannually), and 'ANNL' (check annually).
Refer to the overview document Commercial Loan (opens in a new window) for more information on features of the Commercial Loan Module.Specify 'C' (Calendar Day), 'P' (Previous Business Day), or 'F' (Following Business Day). If you wish to specify 'P' or 'F', you must set Calendar Code to something other than 'BASE' or (None).
Refer to the overview document Commercial Loan (opens in a new window) for more information on features of the Commercial Loan Module.Select a calendar from the list. You can set up additional custom calendars through the special Commercial Loan version of the Weekend And Holiday Assgn [U0720] (opens in a new window) update. You must set the Calendar Code to 'BASE' or (None) if you wish to specify 'C' (Calendar Day) for Use Business Day.
