Chimichango Industries has decided to borrow $50,000,000.00 for six months in two three-month issues. As the Treasurer, you are concerned that interest rates will rise over the next three months and the rate upon which the second payment will be based will be undesirable.

-Refer to Exhibit 15.16. Assuming that three-month LIBOR is 5.6 percent on the rate determination day, and the contract specified settlement in arrears at month 6, describe the transaction that occurs between the dealer and Chimichango.
