Solve for a Forward Rate in the Eurodollar futures contract on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange using three known variables to solve for one unknown variable based on the Federal Open Markets Committees (FOMC) Federal Funds Rate.
The first two known variables are fixed calendar dates. First the dates of the FOMC meetings approximately every six weeks. Secondly, the month fixed expiration dates of the Eurodollar futures contract on the CME. The third variable is a subjectively fixed variable between two interest rates (Libor and
Fed Funds)
The model uses calendar dates to determine forward pricing based on interpolation of expiration dates, FOMC dates, the Libor/FedFund spreads, and projected (unknown) future changes in the Fed Funds rate.
