A financial institution has entered into an interest rate swap with company X. Under the terms of the swap, it receives 5% per annum and pays six- month LIBOR on a principal of $5 million for five years. Payments are made every six months. Suppose that company X defaults on the sixth payment date (end of year 3) when the six-month forward LIBOR rates for all maturities are 3% per annum. Assume that six-month LIBOR was 3.5% per annum halfway through year 3 and that at the time of default all OIS rates are 2.5% per annum. OIS rates are expressed with continuous compounding; other rates are expressed with semiannual compounding. The loss to the financial institution is closest to: O a. $231,365 O b. $347,048 O c. $462,730

nsurance company, IHI, is part of a swap agreement with investment bank Lachlin Bank on a notional principal of $100 million. IHI has agreed to pay Lachlin Bank the six month BBSW rate and receives 7% pa, convertible half-yearly.

Suppose that a company enters into a FRA that is designed to ensure it will receive a fixed rate of 4.8% on a principal of $100,000,000 for a six-month period beginning in 4 years. If, in 4 years the six-month LIBOR is 5.2% for the ensuing six-month period, what is the value of the FRA at that point in time (i.e. in 4 years)? (Required precision: 0.01 +/- 0.01) (All interest rates in this problem are annual rates, compounded semi-annually)
On January 2, 2020, Parton Company issues a 5-year, $10,000,000 note at LIBOR, with interest paid annually. The variable rate is reset at the end of each year. The LIBOR rate for the first year is 5.8%. Parton Company decides it prefers fixed-rate financing and wants to lock in a rate of 6%. As a result, Parton enters into an interest rate swap to pay 6% fixed and receive LIBOR based on $10 million. The variable rate is reset to 6.6% on January 2, 2021. Instructions a. Compute the net interest expense to be reported for this note and related swap transactions as of December 31, 2020. b. Compute the net interest expense to be reported for this note and related swap transactions as of December 31, 2021.
A client of a financial institution that is a counterparty to a four-year plain-vanilla interest rate swap has declared bankruptcy. Exactly 16 months remain until the swap matures. In the swap, the financial institution receives 4% per annum fixed rate and pays six-month Australian dollar (AUD) libor based on a principal of AUD10 million. The next floating rate payment would have been at the rate of 3.5% p.a. For all maturities, the continuously compounded AUD interest rate is 3% per annum. What is the value of the potential loss to the financial institution?
Janutis Co. has just issued fixed rate debt at 10 percent. Yet it prefers to convert its financing to incur a floating rate on its debt. It engages in an interest rate swap in which it swaps variable rate payments of LIBOR plus 1 percent inexchange for payments of 10 percent. The interest rates are applied to an amount that represents the principal from its recent debt issue in order to determine the interest payments due at the end of each year for the next three years. Janutis Co. expects that the LIBOR will be 9 percent at the end of the first year, 8.5 percent at the end of the second year, and 7 percent at the endof the third year. Determine the financing rate that Janutis Co. expects to pay on its debt after considering the effect of the interest rate swap.

Delta Company issues 10,000,000 variable-rate debt at par with a coupon rate of 6% on 1/1/X1 that pays interest quarterly and enters into an interest-rate swap that is used to hedge the debt to produce fixed-rate debt. The swap has a fair value of zero initially. The swap resets each quarter on the last day of the quarter and is perfectly effective. At 12/31/X1 the variable rate changes to 6.5%, which will cause a change in fair value of the derivative. Prepare any journal entries for 12/31/X1 & prepare any journal entries for 3/31/X2. 6.00% Swap Change Date Interest paid Fair value debt Fair value fair values Net cash 12/31/X1 $150,000 $10,000,000 $174,900 $174,900 $0 3/31/X2 $162,500 $10,000,000 $165,200 ($9,700) $12,500
