- Assume oat forward prices over the next 3 years are $2.30, $2.40, and $2.33, respectively. Effective annual interest rates over the same period are 5.5%, 5.8%, and 6.1%. What is the 3-year swap price if the delivery in year 1 is 100,000 bushels, the delivery in year 2 is 125,000 bushels and the delivery in year 3 is 175,000 bushels?arrow_forward3arrow_forwardYou took out a $200,000 mortgage for 30 years. The contract rate is tied to the one-year U.S. treasury rate (index rate). The fixed risk premium for your mortgage is 9%. Your interest rate will be adjusted every year. For the first year, the index rate is 1.5%. What is the outstanding principal at the end of year 1? $95,758 $198,999 $197,769 $96,726arrow_forward
- You work at the interest rates swaps trading desk of an investment bank. Exactly three years ago you entered into an interest rate swap with a client with a notional of €200 million. The client is paying a fixed rate of 4% with semi-annual frequency and receiving the floating rate LIBOR with semi-annual frequency. The interest rate swap had a maturity of six years when it was initiated.Today is payment day and you have already exchanged the cash-flows for today. What is the value of this interest rate swap for you? Use the data in Table 1. Please show your calculations. Discuss your result. Rates are continuously compounded in image attachedbarrow_forwardA plain vanilla 2-year interest rate swap with annual payments has a notional principal of $1 million. 5 month(s) into the swap, the term structure of interest rates is flat at 4.70%. The first floating-rate payment has already been set to 5.00%. The fixed payments are 5.29%. What is the value of this swap? Please show steps Answer: -8310arrow_forwardA $30,000,000 interest rate swap has a 12-month maturity, and was entered 2 months ago. This means the swap has a remaining life of 10 months. The swap pays interest quarterly, and it stipulates that the fixed rate is 4.5%, while the floating rate is the 3-month LIBOR +1%. Two months ago, when the swap was entered, 3-month LIBOR was 2.9%. The 3-month LIBOR forward rates and continuous time zero-coupon prices are given in a table below. Use the zero coupon prices to discount cash-flows. 3-month LIBOR Forward Rates Term rate 1x4 2.90% 2x5 2.85% 3x6 2.84% 4x7 2.88% 5x8 2.90% 6x9 2.91% 7x10 2.92% 8x11 2.92% 9x12 2.92% Zero-Coupon prices T (month) Price 1 0.9976 2 0.9953 3 0.9929 4 0.9904 5 0.988 6 0.9856 7 0.9831 8 0.9807 9 0.9783 10 0.9761 11 0.9737 12 0.9712 (Important hint: since the swap was entered 2 months ago, and makes quarterly payments, in the remaining 10 months, payments should be expected in 1 month, 4 months, 7 months and 10 months. Discount cash flows accordingly.)…arrow_forward
- H3. A 2-year swap based on LIBOR is entered into on 30/6/2010 with current spot 3 month LIBOR at 0.54%. The swap is based on a notional principal of $100m What is the swap rate? Please show proper step by step calculationarrow_forward5. 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.arrow_forwardAn investor holds the fixed-payer position in a 7.44%/LIBOR swap with $1M notional principal, semi-annual payments, and exactly one-year remaining. What is the value of the existing fixed-payer position, if the swap rate for new one-year swaps with matching notional principal is 3.57%/LIBORarrow_forward
- A 2-year swap based on LIBOR is entered into on 30/6/2010 with current spot 3 month LIBOR at 0.54%. The swap is based on a notional principal of $100m What is the swap rate?arrow_forwardFord has a 5 year $100m fixed rate loan with Citibank at 0.061 (annual rate). Ford now thinks rates will go lower and calls Goldman Sachs for a swap and receives a quote of 0.029 / 0.030 (annual rate) against 6m LIBOR flat and executes the swap. Assume at the next rate reset, 6m LIBOR is 0.018 (annual rate). What is Ford's net effective annual interest rate for that rate reset in decimal terms to three decimal places?
