About Close Cap/Floor Contracts

When you close a Cap/Floor contract, the system performs the following processing:

  • Calculates and stores any applicable Local and Base gain/loss on the contracts. Some contracts do not have a gain/loss if the contract is purchased and closed with a cost of zero (zero cost).

  • Calculates any applicable traded interest.

  • Closes an inventory position for the number of contracts. Sell (Long) close Long positions. BUYCVR close Short position in inventory.

  • Updates the general ledger with the cost reduction of the contract's Realized Gain/Loss and the payable or receivable for the contracts.

  • The Bifurcation Method (tag 5825) field for the entity determines if Eagle Accounting processes Bifurcation on a Close transaction.

  • The system uses the Holding Date from the open of the Floor contract and the Trade Date of the Close transaction to determine Long Term and Short Term gain/loss.
