Final Query - 2 versions of HPY-BEY effective, converts, provided, annual, period

sdada

Schweser have provided two formulas for converting a HPY into a BEY as below. Assume the HPY is for a period of 30 days
1) BEY= HPY*365/30
2) BEY = HPY^(6) * 2
I personally agree with the second formula as it converts the HPY to an effective semi annual yield. I would hugely appreciate it if anyone could clarify this for me.

Thanks a million, I really appreciate it.

The first shows up in Corporate Finance, and it’s wrong.  Use it only in Corporate Finance.
