问题如下：

Marcus, who works for an investment management company, is asked to calculate what the gain would be in 6 months on a purchase of $2,000,000 vega notional of a one-year variance swap on the S&P 500 at a strike of 20% (quoted as annual volatility).

Now six months have passed, and the S&P 500 has experienced a realized volatility of 16%，The fair strike of a new 6-month variance swap on the S&P 500 will be 18%.

The annual interest rate is 2.00%

The current value of the variance swap is:

选项：

A.

-$5,445,544.500

B.

-$5,500,000.000

C.

$5,445,544.500

解释：

A is correct

中文解析：

本题考察的是variance swap。

需要求解的是variance swap在6个月时刻的value：

第一步，计算vega notional = $2,000,000/(2×20)=50,000

第二步，计算折现因子PVt (T)=1/[1 + (2.00% × 6/12)] = 0.990099

第三步，直接带入公式计算，VarSwapt= $50,000 × (0.990099) × [(6/12) × 256 + (6/12) × 324 – 400]= -$5,445,544.500.

计算的是variance national
