Swap fixed rate : Quick question completely, knowledge, discount, question, remember

hardwork24

I’m leaking knowledge and have completely forgotten this.
How do I calculate this? If you were starting from scratch and wanted to construct the fixed rate based on the various forward rates.
Something to do with discount factors I remember that (Z1+z4)/Z1+Z2+Z3+Z4)….
Thanks

should be:
fixed rate (swap rate) = (sum of discount factor * forward rate)/(sum of discount factors)

Cool thanks. Of course it is….
Starting to worry about this test big time by forgetting basic stuff. You know, this morning I put the milk in the cupboard, and the sugar in the fridge? This time last year I forgot the pin number for my credit card. Never remebered it again.

Hahaha “the milk in the cupboard, and the sugar in the fridge”!!! I’m doing weird things like that too.
