FD records interest expense on the note payable using the effective interest meth-
od. The effective interest rate for 2018 is 3%, and the book value of the note paya-
by the amount of interest each year. Interest expense (net) as a result of the two
entries is $15,000 ($15,424 interest expense – $424 interest revenue), which is the
variable rate for 2018 of 3% times the $500,000 face value of the note.
FD receives $5,000 under the swap contract with its counterparty because the
interest rate decreased from 4% to 3% [$500,000 × (0.04 – 0.03)], which also re-
contract from a $9,567 asset to a $9,297 liability results in a $18,864 loss on
revaluation of swap contract reflected in the income statement. The gain on
revaluation of the note exactly offsets the loss on revaluation of the swap contract,
so the swap contract hedges the change in interest rates.
