Equalisation for first dividend/interest payment

I’ve has a look at this on HL charting, comparing the ex-div impact on Price and on Total Return. The difference between the two should account for the interest payment. Price fell from (approx.) 113.0 to 110.1, a fall of 2.57%, the amount mentioned in my 9.54am post. Total Return fell from 11825 to 11640, a fall of 1.56%. The difference of 1.01% is close to the equivalent of a 1.107p payment on a unit price of 113p: 0.97%. So FeralHog seems to have it right.

That's one mystery solved. I'm still intrigued as to why an open-ended fund holding only fixed interest investments could pay zero income over a period of 18 months. Index linked bonds didn't suspend interest payments during the pandemic as far as I'm aware.
