Consider a 4-year 5% bond swap in euros for 1 million notional value. In other words, there will be three interest payments followed by a final payment of interest plus principal, all made in euros. Assume that the appropriate discount rate is 9% and the spot rate is 1.05 USD/EUR when answering the following questions related to possible swap contracts. a. What is the net present value of the payments described above (in euros)? b. If you want to offset the euro payments with a single USD payment at the end of year two, what is the appropriate amount? (This could be described as a bullet repayment.) c. Alternatively, if you want to offset the euro payments with four equal USD payments at the end of each year, what is the appropriate amount? (This could be described as an annuity repayment.) Show work
