Textbook Question
Chapter A, Problem 4E
Derivatives; interest rate swap; fixed rate debt; fair value change unrelated to hedged risk
(This is a variation of E A–2, modified to consider fair value change unrelated to hedged risk.)
LLB Industries borrowed $200,000 from Trust Bank by issuing a two-year, 10% note, with interest payable quarterly. LLB entered into a two-year interest rate swap agreement on January 1, 2018, and designated the swap as a fair value hedge. Its intent was to hedge the risk that general interest rates will decline, causing the fair value of its debt to increase. The agreement called for the company to receive payment based on a 10% fixed interest rate on a notional amount of $200,000 and to pay interest based on a floating interest rate.
Floating (LIBOR) settlement rates were 10% at January 1, 8% at March 31, and 6% at June 30, 2018. The fair values of the swap are quotes obtained from a derivatives dealer. Those quotes and the fair values of the note are as indicated below. The additional rise in the fair value of the note (higher than that of the swap) on June 30 was due to investors’ perceptions that the creditworthiness of LLB was improving.
Required:
- 1. Calculate the net cash settlement at June 30, 2018.
- 2. Prepare the
journal entries on June 30, 2018, to record the interest and necessary adjustments for changes in fair value.

On January 1, 2024, Avalanche Corporation borrowed $132,000 from First Bank by issuing a two-year, 8% fixed-rate note
with annual interest payments. The principal of the note is due on December 31, 2025.
• Avalanche wanted to hedge against declines in general interest rates, so it also entered into a two-year SOFR-based
interest rate swap agreement on January 1, 2024, and designates it as a fair value hedge. Because the swap is
entered at market rates, the fair value of the swap is zero at inception.
. The agreement called for the company to receive fixed interest at the current SOFR swap rate of 5% and pay floating
interest tied to SOFR. This arrangement results in an effective variable rate on the note of SOFR + 3%.
• The contract specifies that the floating rate resets each year on June 30 and December 31 for the net settlement that
is due the following period. In other words, the net cash settlement is calculated using beginning-of-period rates.
