Interest Posting Information:
The Interest Rate and other settings are pulled from the Account Type associated with the account. If the Account Type has the Lock Rate and Frequency on Accounts option selected, these settings cannot be changed when setting up an account. If desired, these settings can be adjusted for all associated accounts in Modify Account Type Information (More Information). You are able to change the account from Compound to Pay Out or vice versa.
If the settings are not locked you can type the Interest Rate. You can type zero here, but this field cannot be left blank. Choose whether this account type is either Compound or Pay Out. Compound account types add interest back to the account balance. Pay Out account types generate checks to the account holder for any interest. Choose the Frequency from the drop-down: Daily, Monthly (on 1st of month), Monthly (on 15th of month), Quarterly, Semi-Annually, Annually, and Once at end of term.
|
|
The Once at end of term option is only available if this account type has an Account Duration. Since Account Types with an account duration are always locked in terms of rate and frequency, this option will not be available when selecting on this page. |
The Based on Inception Date option makes the program compound or payout interest based on the inception date of the deposit account. You only want to check this option if Accrue Frequency is set to either Daily or Monthly.
The Accrue Interest Frequency option allows you to accrue interest at a different frequency than your Compound/Pay Out Frequency. Choose the Accrue Interest Frequency from the drop-down: Daily, Monthly (on 1st of month), Monthly (on 15th of month), Quarterly, Semi-Annually, Annually, and Once at end of term.
|
|
The Once at end of term option is only available if this account type has an Account Duration. Since Account Types with an account duration are always locked in terms of rate and frequency, this option will not be available when selecting on this page. |
|
|
The Accrue Interest Frequency setting allows you to post interest to the General Ledger on a regular basis for account types that Compound or Pay Out on a Quarterly, Semi-Annual, or Annual Frequency. If your organization posts accrued interest, the Accrue Interest Frequency option is typically set to Daily or Monthly (1st) for all account types. Otherwise, the Accrue Frequency option is set to match your Frequency selection.
In the below example, a journal is created in the General ledger for the interest every month. However, the interest is only added to the account quarterly (1/1, 4/1, 7/1, and 10/1).
If the account type set to Pay Out, the posted interest (in this case, quarterly) turns into a withdrawal check. |
