§ 148. of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
That is, >yield= means the annual discount rate which, when
used to discount all payments of debt service on an issue of
bonds to the date of issuance of the bonds, using a semiannual
compounding interval, results in the aggregate present value
of such payments being equal to an amount equal to the re-
offering price to the public of such bonds less fees to be paid
for credit enhancement of such bonds from proceeds thereof.
(d) ‘Debt service’ means the scheduled principal of and
interest on bonds plus fees to be paid (other than from bond
proceeds) for credit enhancement of such bonds and the net
amounts to be paid or received under any financial contract
entered into under § 51105 of this Chapter. For purposes of
this definition, any prior bonds bearing interest at a variable
rate shall be assumed to bear interest at the then-current
interest rate on such bonds.
(e) ‘Debt service savings’ means the percentage by
which the present value of debt service on the refunding
bonds is less than the present value of debt service on the
prior bonds, taking into account any moneys transferred from
the refunded bonds to the refunding bonds and taking into
account any moneys contributed to either or both bond issues.
Present value shall be calculated for this purpose using the
yield on the refunding bonds as the discount rate.
(f) ‘Bond’ means any bond, note or other evidence of
indebtedness.
(g) ‘GEDA’ means the Guam Economic Development
Authority.
