--- Comment #6 from Winfried Donkers <winfrieddonkers at libreoffice.org> ---
I can't get it to produce the same results as Excel produces, see comment#5 for
reasons.
Also, the odd first period calculations differ between countries/regions. The
calculation Excel uses is useful only in the USA.

I suggest to remove these 2 functions from Calc.
No user filed a bug since the code was removed in 2001.
Making the functions fully compatible with Excel means that we have to produced
documented incorrect results in some cases; I don't think we want this.
