For discount factors that are over 360 days, what is the proper formula?
Example: Libor is .0411 540 days
Answer says discount rate is .9419
I usually calculate 1 / 1 + .0411 x (540/720). What am i doing wrong?
Also, when I’m looking at answer - where are they coming up with .0149?
Max [0, (0.0275 - .0223)] x (.9903 + .9645 + .9419 +.0149) x 25,000,000
The last discount factor?
When you used 540 days / 720 days in your first post, the 720 represents 2 years (360 x 2). That’s why nvestn was telling you that you need 1 year rather than 2. (540/360 NOT over 720).
