An interest rate swap has three years of remaining life. Payments are exchanged annually. Interest at 5% is paid and 12-month LIBOR is received. An exchange of payments has just taken place. The one-year, two-year and three-year LIBOR/swap zero rates are 4%, 5% and 6%. All rates are annually compounded. What is the value of the swap as a percentage of the principal ($100) when OIS and LIBOR rates are the same

1. (15 marks) (a) Consider a two-year interest rate swap with semi-annual payments based on actual/360 day-count and a notional principal of $1 million. Assume that the current six-month LIBOR and the forward LIBORS for the next three periods are as follows: Current Forward No. of Days 6-Month 6-Month Period in Period LIBOR LIBOR 1 181 4.6% 2 184 5.0% 3 181 5.2% 4 184 5.6% (a) What is the swap rate for this swap? (9 marks) (b) After one year, the six-month LIBOR is 5.5% and the forward LIBOR for the next period is 6.0%. What is the value of this swap from the perspective of the floating-rate payer? (6 marks)
A semi-annual pay interest rate swap where the fixed rate is 5.00% (with semi-annual compounding) has a remaining life of nine months. The six-month LIBOR rate observed three months ago was 4.85% with semi-annual compounding. Today’s three and nine month LIBOR rates are 5.3% and 5.8% (continuously compounded) respectively. From this it can be calculated that the forward LIBOR rate for the period between three- and nine-months is 6.14% with semi-annual compounding. If the swap has a principal value of $15,000,000, what is the value of the swap to the party receiving a fixed rate of interest? Assume OIS rates are the same as LIBOR rates.

5. Suppose you have a 2.5-year remaining on an interest rate swap with a notional principal of $10,000, 000 between Company A and Company B. Company A pays fixed rate and Company B pays the float rate. Fixed and float payments are exchanged every year and the last payment was exchanged 6 months ago. The fixed rate is 3.5% per annum, and the floating rate is tied to the annual LIBOR. The previous 1-year LIBOR rate, set 6 months ago, is 2.75%, 6 month LIBOR is 3.25%. the 1.5-year LIBOR is 3.25%, and the 2.5-year LIBOR is 3.50%. Calculate the present value of the fixed and floating legs of the swap, and determine the swap's net present value from Company A's perspective. Assume annual compounding for discounting.
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. If the swap has a residual life of 18 months, and the next interest payment is due in six months, calculate the value of the swap for Lachlin, given BBSW rates (compounding continuously) for the corresponding 6, 12 and 18 month maturities are 6.91% pa, 7.3% pa, 7.35% pa and the half year BBSW rate on the next payment is known to be 7% pa compounding half-yearly.

Incredible Inc., a manufacturer of children’s toys, enters into a two-year plain vanilla interest rate swap, in which the corporation will receive a fixed rate and pay a floating rate of LIBOR. The notional amount on this swap is $75 million. Swap payments will be netted every 180 days, and the LIBOR requires the assumption of a 360-day year. The term structure of LIBOR on the swap initiation date is as follows: Days Rate (%) 180 3.50 360 3.55 540 3.60 720 3.70 a. What is the fixed rate determined on the swap initiation date? b. Calculate the swap value on the initiation date.
Netflix company has entered into a plain vanilla interest rate swap on $2,500,000 notional principal. The company pays fixed rate of 7.0% on payments that occur at 60-day intervals. Six payments remain with the next one due in exactly 60 days. On the other side of the swap, the company receives payments based on the LIBOR rate. Describe the transaction that occurs between the company and the dealer at the end of the first period if the appropriate LIBOR rate is 8.5%.
