问题如下:
A company issues a leveraged floating-rate note that pays a coupon of 1.5 times Libor on notional principle of $1 million. It uses the proceeds to buy a fixed-rate bond with coupon rate of 6%. In order to hedge the floating payments risk, the company enters into a swap with a fixed rate of 5% and a floating rate of 1.5 times Libor. Calculate the net profit of these transactions.
选项:
A.$20,000
B.$10,000
C.$15,000
解释:
B is correct.
考点:managing interest rate risk
解析:
总头寸有三个:
1. 发行了一个Leveraged floating-rate note: 支付1.5 * L *NP=1.5*libor*1million利息,收到本金1million
2. 用收到的1million来购买了Fixed rate bond: 收到6% * NP=6%*1million的利息
3. Swap: 为了抵消付浮动的头寸,应该进入收浮动(1.5*libor)、付固定(5%)的swap,名义本金为1million
净收益=
-(1.5*libor*1million)+ 6%*1million + (1.5*libor*1million -5%*1million )
=1%*1million
=$10,000
是因为有Libor所以需要考虑3笔flow吗
