Multiple Choice
Use the following information to answer questions bellow.
A company obtains a $1,000,000 variable rate loan on January 1, 2021, at a 2.1% interest rate. The loan is renewable every 3 months, and the interest rate is reset at each renewal. The company hedges against rising interest rates by taking a short futures position in $1,000,000 of 3-month Treasury bills at 99. There is no margin deposit, and the hedge qualifies as a fair value hedge of a firm liability commitment. At the end of 3 months, the Treasury bills sell for 98.2 and the loan renews at 2.9%. The company closes the futures contract and renews the loan. All income effects of the loan and the futures are reported in interest expense.
-How much cash does the company receive from or pay to the broker when it closes the futures contract?
A) Receives $2,000
B) Pays $2,000
C) Receives $8,000
