On January 1, 20X1, Lucky Inc. received a two-year, $2 million loan with interest payments due at the end of each year and the principal to be repaid on December 31, 20X2. The interest rate for the first year is the prevailing market rate of 9 percent, and the rate each succeeding year will be equal to the prevailing market rate on January 1 of that year. On January 1, 20X1, Lucky also entered into an interest rate swap agreement related to this loan and designated this swap as a hedge against fluctuations for its interest payments. Under the terms of the swap agreement, in the year 20X2, Lucky will receive a swap payment based on the principal amount of $2 million. If the January 1 interest rate is greater than 9 percent, Lucky will receive a swap payment for the difference; and if the January 1 interest rate is less than 9 percent, Lucky will make a swap payment for the difference. The swap payments are made on December 31 of each year. On January 1, 20X2, the interest rate is 12 percent.
