问题 单项选择题

Consider a $10000000 1-year quarterly-pay swap with a fixed rate of 4.5 percent and a floating rate of 90-day London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 150 basis points. 90-day LIBOR is currently 3 percent and the current forward rates for the next four quarters are 3.2 percent, 3.6 percent, 3.8 percent, and 4 percent. If these rates are actually realized, at the termination of the swap the floating-rate payer will:()

A. pay $20000.

B. pay $25000.

C. receive $12500.

答案

参考答案:A

解析:

The payment at the fourth (final) settlement date will be based on the realized LIBOR at the third quarter, 3.8%. The net payment by the floating rate payer will be: (0.038+0.015- 0.045)×90/360×10000000 =$20000.
