解释:
CKPS has entered into a swap to receive the
equity index return and pay floating Libor. The swap cash flow for a
receive-equity, pay-floating is
NA(Equity return – Floating rate)
Return on the equity index = (905 – 925)/925 =
–0.021622
The first floating payment is made quarterly.
Using a 30/360 day count, we have (0.0142 × 90/360) = 0.003550.
Cash flow from the swap = (–0.021622 – 0.00355)
× $100,000,000 = –$2,517,200
为啥90天的libor要用1.42?而不是2.21%
