#redirect[[Cash Settlement - Equity Derivatives Provision]]
====Commentary====
To be contrasted with {{eqderivprov|Total Return}}. And [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voodoo_Child_(Slight_Return) Slight Return]. The {{eqderivprov|Price Return}} is the subtraction of the {{eqderivprov|Settlement Price}} from the {{eqderivprov|Initial Price}}, and can (if the underlier incereases in value over the life of the Transaction) be a positive of a negative number. If it's positive, the Equity Amount Payer pays it. If it's negative, the {{eqderivprov|Equity Amount Receiver}} pays the absolute value.
 
(by contrast the Total Return formulaton is {{eqderivprov|Equity Notional Amount}} * ({{eqderivprov|Settlement Price}}/{{eqderivprov|Initial Price}}), which can't be negative, since both the numerator and the denominator are always positive).
