On January 1, 2024, Avalanche Corporation borrowed $122,000 from First Bank by issuing a two-year, 8% fixed-rate note with annual interest payments. The principal of the note is due on December 31, 2025.
- Avalanche wanted to hedge against declines in general interest rates, so it also entered into a two-year SOFR-based interest rate swap agreement on January 1, 2024, and designates it as a fair value hedge. Because the swap is entered at market rates, the fair value of the swap is zero at inception.
- The agreement called for the company to receive fixed interest at the current SOFR swap rate of 5% and pay floating interest tied to SOFR. This arrangement results in an effective variable rate on the note of SOFR + 3%.
- The contract specifies that the floating rate resets each year on June 30 and December 31 for the net settlement that is due the following period. In other words, the net cash settlement is calculated using beginning- of-period rates.
The SOFR rates on the swap reset dates and the fair values of the swap obtained from a derivatives dealer are as follows:
1/1/24 | 6/30/24 | 12/31/24 | 6/30/25 | 12/31/25 | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Floating rate (SOFR) | 5% | 6% | 4% | 3% | 3% |
Fair value of interest rate swap | $ 0 | $ (1,634) | $ 1,191 | $ 1,216 | $ 0 |
Avalanche meets all criteria for hedge accounting using the shortcut method.
- Calculate the net cash settlement at each settlement date during 2024 and 2025.
- Prepare the
journal entries during 2024 to record the issuance of the note, interest, net cash settlement for the interest rate swap, and necessary adjustments for changes in fair value under the shortcut method. - Prepare the journal entries during 2025 to record interest, net cash settlement for the interest rate swap, necessary adjustments for changes in fair value, and repayment of the debt.
