Sorry I have to raise this.  icon_question.gif  brows.gif

The 1 week break is for the dividend calculations and updating all the accounts, right?

Assume they have 100,000 unit holders, calculations will involve steps like these:
* calculate the dividend for month X using the minimum balance in that month
* repeat for the other 11 months
* sum up the monthly dividends
* add the yearly dividends to the balance

Number of steps = 12+1+1= 14

Round it off to 20 steps per account.

Then total = 20 * 100,000 = 2 million steps.

Using the old 1954 IBM 650 computer at 0.06 kIPS (0.06 kilo instructions per second), it will take it 2,000,000/60=33,333 seconds = 555.5 mins = 8.3 hours to complete the calculations and updating.

Even an OLD computer takes only 8 hrs to do the job. Why 7 days?
Using Intel Core i5 (83,000 MIPS), that should only take 2 million/83,000 million = 0.00002 second!
For the IT friends out there, hold your horses, yes, reading data from and writing data to memory are slower than just memory calcs. So, I am not comparing apple with apple. Ha.

Cheerio.

This thing needs accountant to verify , chairman to sign , speech to prepare to press, admin works, paperwork discussion on the final dividends , justifications, projection of sales - all need time
