[Code of Federal Regulations] [Title 31, Volume 2] [Revised as of July 1, 2008] From the U.S. Government Printing Office via GPO Access [CITE: 31CFR351.28] [Page 322-323] TITLE 31--MONEY AND FINANCE: TREASURY CHAPTER II--FISCAL SERVICE, DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY PART 351_OFFERING OF UNITED STATES SAVINGS BONDS, SERIES EE--Table of Contents Subpart B_Maturities, Redemption Values, and Investment Yields of Series Sec. 351.28 How are redemption values calculated for bonds with issue dates from May 1, 1995, through April 1, 1997? We determine the redemption value of a bond on the accrual date immediately following each semiannual earning period as follows: (a) We convert the applicable long-term or short-term savings bond rate for the semiannual earning period to decimal form by dividing by 100, and adjust it to a semiannual rate by dividing by 2. (b) Using redemption values for the base denomination, as defined in Sec. 351.16, we then multiply this rate by the redemption value of the bond at [[Page 323]] the beginning of the semiannual earning period. (c) We add the resulting interest amount, rounded to the nearest cent, to the redemption value of the bond at the beginning of the earning period to produce the redemption value at the next semiannual accrual date. The redemption value of a bond remains constant between accrual dates. Series EE Savings Bonds With Issue Dates of May 1, 1997, Through April 1, 2005
