问题如下:
Bank XYZ enters into a five-year swap contract with ABC Co. to pay LIBOR in return for a fixed 8% rate on a principal of $100 million. Two years from now, the market rate on three-year swaps at LIBOR is 7%. At this time ABC Co. declares bankruptcy and defaults on its swap obligation. Assume that the net payment is made only at the end of each year for the swap contract period. What is the market value of the loss incurred by Bank XYZ as a result of the default?
选项:
A.$1.927 million
B.$2.245 million
C.$2.624 million
D.$3.011 million
解释:
ANSWER: C
Using Equation: for three remaining periods, we have the discounted value of the net interest payment, or discounted at 7%, which is $934,579+$873,439+$816,298 = $2,624,316.
老师,我是按照收到8%固定利率支出7%LIBOR来做的,虽然题目中说了ABC公司在第二年末违约了,但是从计算的角度来看违约产生的loss体现在哪里了呢?
