    Please give me the name of the question.

    I do not have the Kaplan kit!

    If it is a past exam question then please tell me the name of the question and the date of the exam – then I will be able to find it and hopefully be able to help you.

    Sorry, but I don’t have the Kaplan exam kit. If it is a past exam question then I can find it elsewhere, but otherwise I can’t help you.

    The current LIBOR equivalent price will be 96.00 (because LIBOR is 4%, so 100 – 4).
    So the current basis is 0.60

    The question says that LIBOR will fall by 0.5% (so to 3.5%) and therefore the equivalent futures price would be 96.50 (100 – 3.5).

    You say that you are happy calculating that the basis will fall to 0.171, so the actual futures price at the date of the transaction will be 96.50 + 0.171 = 96.671
