Interest Rate Swap
Example:
(LO 6)
On January 2, 2017, MacCloud Co. issued a 4 year, $100,000 note at 6% fixed interest, interest payable semiannually.
MacCloud now wants to change the note to a variable-rate note.
As a result, on January 2, 2017, MacCloud Co. enters into an interest rate swap where it agrees to receive 6% fixed and pay LIBOR (variable Rate) of 5.7% for the first 6 months on $100,000. At each 6-month period, the variable rate will be reset. The variable rate is reset to 6.7% on June 30, 2017.
Instructions
(a) Compute the net interest expense to be reported for this note and related swap transaction as of June 30, 2017.
(b) Compute the net interest expense to be reported for this note and related swap transaction as of December 31, 2017.

Explain
MacCloud Co. issued a note (borrowing money) at fixed rate 6%
MacCloud Co. want to get variable rate, thinking it is cheaper interest expense, at 5.7%
Counter-party also has the note at variable rate at 5.7% but want a fixed rate at 6%
So MacCloud Co. and Counter-party swap their interest payment on their $100,000 note. They both will be paying each other interest on the debt.

Calculate Interest Expense for 6 months:
Fixed Rate at 6.0%
$100,000 x 6.0% x (½) = $3,000
Variable Rate at 5.7%
$100,000 x 5.7% x (½) = $2,850
Variable Rate at 6.7%
$100,000 x 6.7% x (½) = $3,350

Investing and Financing Cycle
An entity uses derivatives as hedges to protect itself against various risks that may be inherent in the assets or liabilities they hold, in anticipated transactions, or other aspects of their business.
The purpose of the hedge is to shift the risk to a counter-party.
For example:
1) Fair Value Hedge
2) Cash Flow Hedge
Cash Flow Hedge
• An entity with a variable rate receivable may be concerned about the uncertainty of future cash inflows due to fluctuations in the interest rate.
They might enter into an interest rate swap in which they will pay out interest at a variable rate, to offset the interest received, and receive interest from the counter-party at a fixed rate.
o As a result, regardless of changes in the market interest rate, the entity will receive a steady and predictable stream of interest cash inflows. o This would be considered a cash flow hedge.
Fair Value Hedge
• An entity with a fixed rate receivable may be concerned that fluctuations in interest rates will affect its fair value.
They might enter into an interest rate swap in which they will pay out interest at a fixed rate, to offset the interest received, and receive interest from the counter-party at a variable rate.
o As a result, they will always be paying the market rate of interest and changes in the fair value of the note will be offset by changes in the fair value of the derivative used as a hedge. o This would be considered a fair value hedge.

What is a fair value hedge?
Fair Value Hedge =
A hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability,
or of an unrecognized firm commitment, that are attributable to a particular risk.
Fair value hedges protect existing assets, liabilities and firm commitments against changes in fair value.
The exposure to changes in fair value can result from a variety of causes including holding a commodity, being committed to purchase or sell something on predetermined terms or issuing or holding a financial instrument that has a fixed interest rate and maturity.

Interest Rate Swap
Example
An entity with fixed-rate debt enters into an interest rate swap to receive a fixed rate of interest and pay a variable rate
(Fair Value Hedge)
change to
Fixed rate debt –> Variable rate debt
to protect against a scenario in which the entity would be required to pay a premium if it decided to extinguish its debt prior to maturity if interest rates decline.
Similarly, if rates increase, the entity would have a gain upon early extinguishment of its debt. The presence of an interest rate swap would offset such a gain or loss.
Note that this discussion focuses on the fair value of the debt.
This focus taken by ASC 815 is often different from that of most entities, which in this situation are usually focused on the interest cash flows each period rather than the value of the debt in the event of a hypothetical extinguishment.
