Bond gain calculator (CashCalc alternative)

richallum

Hi,

CashCalcs good bond gain calc is in maintenance mode and there's no date for it coming back. I sued it a lot as a sense check for my own calcs and it was really good. Anyone know a good alternative?

I thought Scot Wids did one too - but seems to have gone AWOL.

Never used it in anger so can't comment on how good it is, but Invidion have a Investment Bond Chargeable Event Calculator.

I'm hesitant because some calculators use the old school top splicing method, I know CashCalc doesn't - so hopefully there's will be back online ASAP

Old Mutual Wealth has a top slicing calculator

Second the OMW calc. It's our go to at the moment as we noticed a few issues with the Cashcalc one - there were a few errors cropping up with certain scenarios even though it was using the new style top slicing method (I'm not sure whether that's connected to it being offline at the mo?).
