    Hello John, I hope you are well.

    I have a question on forward rate calculation done in Lignum (2012).

    In the answer sheet, it says forward rate is 145.23 (142 × (1 + (0.085 + 0.0025)/3)/(1 + (0.022 – 0.0030)/3) = 145.23)
    But when I recalculate it, I get 145.2219.
    So do I have to round up to smallest tick? instead of rounding down?

    Thank you.

    No. I would have rounded it to 145.22 and it would still have got full marks 🙂
