Problem 17-15

On December 31, 2020, Pearl Corp. had a $11,700,000, 8.0% fixed-rate note outstanding, payable in 2 years. It decides to enter into a 2-year swap with Chicago First Bank to convert the fixed-rate debt to variable-rate debt. The terms of the swap indicate that Pearl will receive interest at a fixed rate of 8.0% and will pay a variable rate equal to the 6-month LIBOR rate, based on the $11,700,000 amount. The LIBOR rate on December 31, 2020, is 7.0%. The LIBOR rate will be reset every 6 months and will be used to determine the variable rate to be paid for the following 6-month period. Pearl Corp. designates the swap as a fair value hedge. Assume that the hedging relationship meets all the conditions necessary for hedge accounting. The 6-month LIBOR rate and the swap and debt fair values are as follows.

Date		6-Month LIBOR Rate			Swap Fair Value			Debt Fair Value
December 31, 2020		7.0	%					$11,700,000
June 30, 2021		7.5	%		(192,300	)		11,507,700
December 31, 2021		6.0	%		59,240			11,759,240
