Miguel, 

 

I am pulling this from the MIFOS website here. 

 

http://mifos.org/documentation/configuration

 

Have you try changing the property AccountingRules.NumberOfInterestDays to 365 
in the applicationConfiguration.custom.properties. 

Let me know if this works for you.

 

Thanks

Chetan

Balance Interest (EMI of Principal and Interest)

 

 

Hi,

 

At MIFOS webpage we see, for interest calculation for loan accounts, equal 
monthly installment, the base days are 30/360 or 1/12. Can we possibly change 
it to 30/365?

Declining Balance Interest (EMI of Principal and Interest)

Declining Balance Definition: Interest is computed at periodic intervals on the 
amount of the original principal that has not yet been repaid. Since the 
borrower only pays interest on that amount of original principal that has not 
yet been repaid, interest paid is smaller every period. However, to make sure 
that the borrower sets EMI, the formula is:

EMI formula:

EMI = i*P / [1- (1+i)^-n]

Where,

P = Loan amount

r = Rate of interest per year

n = Term of the loan in periods

l = Length of a period (fraction of a year, i.e., 1/12 = 1 month (or 30/360), 
14/360 = bi-weekly.)

i = Interest rate per period (r*l)

Regards,
