About This Feature

Overview

ODDLPRICE is a financial function in WPS Spreadsheet that returns the price per 100 face value of a security with an odd last coupon period. It is useful for bond pricing, irregular coupon-period analysis, and spreadsheet models that combine dates, rates, yields, and referenced cells.

Core capabilities include:

  • Use the ODDLPRICE function directly in a worksheet cell.
  • Enter settlement date, maturity date, last interest date, rate, yield, and related arguments in the required order.
  • Work with cross-sheet references and nested formulas.
  • Recalculate results automatically when referenced values change.

Overall Conclusion
