R1 Pop Quiz B
It took me a while to get the calculation so I would like to share it to save your time ![]()
using the same table above, with the same weight, 2.5 for first 50, 1.3 for next 50, you just need to redistribute given total # of bond issuers. For example, 85 = 50 + 35, so BSF = (50 x 2.5 + 35 * 1.3 )/85 - 1 =1.006

Hello @mballard
I have inserted the "-1" into the earlier comment. Thanks.
Thanks mballard!
