The document discusses the calculation of interest on deferred payments in bankruptcy cases, specifically focusing on the 'formula' method endorsed by the Till plurality. This method starts with a risk-free interest rate, such as the national prime rate, and adjusts it based on plan-specific risks. The document also compares this method to other interest-calculation methods and discusses its applicability in Chapter 11 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy cases.
