On January 1, 2014, VB Technical Inc. issues a 5-year, 6% fixed-rate interest only, nonprepayable $5,000,000 note with interest payable on June 30 and December 31 of each year. VB decides to change the interest rate from a fixed rate to variable rate and enters into a swap agreement with Last Bank Financial. The swap agreement specifies that VB will receive a fixed rate at 6% and pay variable with settlement dates that match the interest payments on the debt. Assume that interest rates have increased during 2014 and that VB paid $37,500 as an adjustment to interest expense for the settlement at June 30, 2014. The gain related to the debt (due to interest rate changes) was $122,000. The value of the obligation under the swap contract increased $122,000.
