Explanation of Solution
A derivative instrument is a financial instrument or other contract with all three of the following features:
- Has one or more underlying provisions and one or more notional amounts or payment provisions or both. These terms determine the settlement or settlement amount and, in some cases, whether a settlement is necessary or not.
- It involves no initial net investment or a smaller initial net investment than would be required for other types of contracts that would be forced to respond to changes in market factors in a similar way.
- Its terms allow or warrant net settlement, it can simply be net settled through means outside the deal or it allows for the distribution of an item that places the receiver in a role not substantially different from net settlement.
All derivatives must always be calculated and published at fair value on each interim and annual financial reporting date in the

The hedge of the exposure to interest rates in a recognized fixed-rate asset is considered a fair value hedge. Consequently, the swap is reported as an asset or liability at fair value on the balance sheet, with changes in the fair value reflected in each reporting period in the income statement. The change in the fair value of the debt (i.e., the gain or loss on the hedged item) attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate ( i.e., six-month US LIBOR) is also reflected in earnings by adjusting the carrying amount of the debt. The debt is presented on the balance sheet at an amount reflecting the impact on its fair value of changes in the benchmark interest rates (e.g., six-month U.S. LIBOR). The swap contract is presented at its fair value on the balance sheet. The changes in the fair value of (1) the debt attributable to the hedged interest rate risk, and (2) the swap contract are recognized in the earnings of the current period. Net interest expenditure for the specific plan the coupon rate of the debt adjusted for the settlement period by the swap.
The effective interest rate paid on the debt for the first two periods is as follows:
|
Interest expense (net) |
Effective annual interest rate (on $25 million of debt) | |
| December 31 |
$750,000 ($937,500 – 187,500) |

| June 30 |
