You, as the head of the derivatives division in an Investment bank, are trying to price a 6-month quarterly Interest rate swap contract with the notional amount of 100 million. Today (Jul 1, 2007) you observe the annualized 3-month LIBOR of 5.0 % that is used for this quarter and the Eurodollar future price of $82 for the next quarter found from CMEgroup.com. You use the actual number of days per 360 basis for each period and found 92 days for both periods. The terms of the swap contracts specify the quarterly payments for floating cash flow. Determine the present value (PV) of floating payments at the inception of the swap. 9 million < PV 7.5 million <- PV < 9 million 6 million < PV < 7.5 million 4.5 million <= PV < 6 million O PV < 4.5 million
