A company wants to borrow $10 million for 90 days starting in one year. To hedge the interest rate risk of the future borrowing, the company enters into a forward rate agreement (FRA) where the company will pay a fixed rate, R(k), of 5.0%. The FRA cash settles in one year; i.e., in advance (T=1.0) not in arrears (T=1.25). All rates are expressed with quarterly compounding. If the actual 90-day LIBOR observed one year forward turns out to be 6.0%, what is the cash flow payment/receipt by the company under the FRA?
