Example:

COUPDAYSNC("2007-01-25"; "2009-11-15"; 2; 4)

returns 110. A bond is originally issued on 15 November 1999, with a ten year term; the date of maturity is 15 November 2009. You subsequently purchase it on the secondary market, with a settlement date of 25 January 2007; Interest is paid half-yearly (frequency is 2); thus interest is due on the 15 May and the 15 November each year, during the bond's term. Using basis 4, there are 110 days from the settlement date 25 January 2007 until the next interest payment on 15 May 07.
