The difference in interest borne by the two series of Victory Notes, each series being dated May 20, 1919, and having identical interest payment dates, is 1 per cent per annum. Interest on such notes is payable on December 15, 191VJ, thereafter semiannually on June 15 and December 15, and at maturity. If 4f per cent notes are converted into 3f per cent notes, the interest adjustment is in favor of the holder, if 3f per cent notes are converted into 4J per cent notes, the interest adjustment is in favor of the Government. In making adjustments in favor of the United States, interest at 1 per cent must be computed from the last interest payment date to the date the notes are presented (received) at a Federal Reserve Bank or the Treasury Department, Washington, and remittance is available at par. Interest on Victory Notes is computed on a semiannual basis, and for fractional periods on the actual number of days elapsing within such semiannual period. The semiannual period ending December 15 contains 183 days. The semiannual period ending June 15 contains 182 days, except that in leap years it contains 183 days. The correct amount of interest adjustment may be ascertained from the foregoing table, the interest adjustment on each $1,000 or $5,000 notes being set opposite the actual number of elapsed days from the last interest payment date to the date the notes are presented for conversion, the appropriate column being used. Inasmuch as the interest payment on December 15, 1919, covers more than six months' interest, for conversions prior to such date reference must be made to both columns in order to determine the correct adjustment. For example, if conversion of a $1,000 note is ma.de on July 15, the correct computation is as follows: Example (a): May 20 to June 15. 26 lapsed days.* 182-day period. Reference to the table shows the interest difference to be $0.7143. June 15 to July 15 30 lapsed days. 183-day period. Reference to the table shows the interest difference to be $0.8197. % Total adjustment accordingly is $1,534. Following are examples of correct interest adjustments after December 15, 1919, for a $1,000 note: Example (b): Conversion February 15, 1920. Last interest payment December 15, 1919. Accordingly 62 days have elapsed in a 183-day period (leap year), and reference to table shows the interest difference to be $1.69. Example (c): February 15, 1921. Last interest payment December 15, 1920. Accordingly 62 days have elapsed in a 182-day period, and reference to table shows the interest difference to be $1.70.
