As a relationship officer for a money-centre commercial bank, one of your corporate accounts has just approached you about a one-year loan for £3 000 000. The customer would pay a quarterly interest expense based on the prevailing level of LIBOR at the beginning of each quarter. As is the bank's convention on all such loans, the amount of the interest payment would then be paid at the end of the quarterly cycle when the new rate for the next cycle is determined. You observe the following LIBOR yield curve in the cash market: 90-day LIBOR 4.70%
180-day LIBOR 4.85%
270-day LIBOR 5.10%
360-day LIBOR 5.40%
If 90-day LIBOR rises to the levels 'predicted' by the implied forward rates, what will the pound level of the bank's interest receipt be at the end of the first quarter?
A) £35 250.00
B) £36 375.00
C) £38 250.00
D) £40 500.00
E) None of the above
