问题如下:

ABC, Inc., entered a forward rate agreement (FRA) to receive a rate of 3.75% with continuous compounding on a principal of USD 1 million between the end of year 1 and the end of year 2. The zero rates are 3.25% and 3.50% for one and two years. What is the value of the FRA when the deal is just entered?

选项:

A.

USD 35,629

B.

USD 34,965

C.

USD 664

D.

USD 0

解释:

ANSWER: D

The market-implied forward rate is given by eR2×2=e(R1×1F1,2×1)e^{-R_2\times2}=e^{(-R_1\times1-F_{1,2}\times1)},or F1,2=2×3.501×3.25=3.75%.F_{1,2}=2\times3.50-1\times3.25=3.75\%. Given that this is exactly equal to the quoted rate, the value must be zero. If instead this rate was 3.50%, for example, the value would be V=$1,000,000×(3.75%3.50%)×(21)×e3.50%×2=2,331V=\$1,000,000\times{(3.75\%-3.50\%)}\times{(2-1)}\times e^{-3.50\%\times2}=2,331

1、a forward rate agreement (FRA) to receive a rate of 3.75%—这句话是不是说明这个FRA的利率是3.75%且我是short position?

2、这题求t=1年时刻的value,我理解就是在t=2年时刻,用(3.75%—三个月市场的int)再折现到t=1年时刻,得出t=1年时刻的value,首先题目没有给出三个月市场的int,其次为什么value是0?

3、题目答案写的计算的远期利率是3.75%,确实没错,但是这个远期利率也不是市场利率啊,怎么能说这个利率equal to quoted rate(FRA rate)呢,不理解

3、题目计算的远期利率是3.75%,是根据1年期和2年期的zero rate算出来的理论远期利率,理论利率和公司进入的远期合约利率(quoted rate)相同,所以公司远期合约的价值为0,不会因此获利或产生损失。

2、这题不是求的t=1时的value,而是当下t=0时的value,题目最后一句明确写了What is the value of the FRA when the deal is just entered?

同时本题的FRA出借资金的时间期限是1年,而不是3个月,你问题里写得三个月是没有来源的。

同学你好,1、是的,long FRA是将来以固定利率borrw money。short FRA就是相当于将来要以3.75%的利率出借资金,到期收回本金和利息的合约。
