| | Forward contract - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | is the spot price of an asset, PV(D) is the present value of dividends from the asset, and PV(C) is the present value of the costs of maintaining the asset. | | | The forward price of such a contract is commonly contrasted with the spot price, which is the price at which the asset changes hands (on the spot date, usually next business day). | | | Here, S is again the spot price of the asset, r is the risk-free force of interest and I is the present value of the net of dividends/coupons/rent less costs of maintaining the asset (discounted using r). |

| | forward price Definition |
| | As with a futures contract, the first step in pricing a forward is to add the spot price to the cost of carry (interest forgone, convenience yield, storage costs and interest/dividend received on the underlying). | | | However, unlike a futures contract, the price may also include a premium for counterparty credit risk, and there is not daily marking-to-market to minimize default risk. | | | Forwards are priced in a manner similar to futures. |

| | The spot price is the price of an asset where the sale transaction and settlement is to occur immediately. | | | The price of a foreign exchange forward contract, for example, depends on the price of the underlying currency and the price of a pork belly futures contract depends on the price of pork bellies. | | | Residual credit risk exists only to the extent that (1) futures prices move so dramatically that the amount required to mark to market is larger than the balance of an individual's margin account, and (2) the individual defaults on payment of the balance. |

| | forward contract/forward price |
| | A standard forward contract is an agreement to buy or to sell an underlying asset at a predetermined price on a single date in the future, where the terms are initially set such that the contract is costless. | | | The delivery price which would set the concurrent value of the forward to zero is called the forward price. | | | At that time, a new futures price is set that resets the present value of the futures contract to zero; and any difference between the successive futures prices is made as a cash payment between the parties. |

| | BS&R: Regulation Z (11/26/2001) |
| | Forward purchase contracts differ from forward equity sales transactions in that the counterparty purchases the shares to be covered under the contract directly in the open market. | | | If, at settlement date, the prevailing stock price is higher than the forward price, the counterparty sells to third parties the number of shares necessary to cover its costs3 and remits the remaining shares to the banking organization to be retired as treasury stock. | | | For example, if an institution has entered into a forward equity transaction and subsequently experiences financial deterioration, it is likely that the institution's share price would reflect this stress and would have declined to a price lower than the forward price fixed in the agreement. |

| | Forward Prices |
| | By extension, we may say that the forward price for a bundle of claims that share the same payment date, but differ only in the states of the world in which they are to be paid is the amount to be paid with certainty at the common date for which the bundle can be obtained. | | | Prices will be set, valuation can be performed, replicating strategies can be determined, packages of state-contingent claims can be valued using atomic prices or the combination of atomic forward prices and discount factors, and so on. | | | We define an atomic forward price as an amount that must be paid with certainty for such a claim, with payment to be made at the same time as the possible payment in question. |

| | Illustration from KPMG |
| | MBS is concerned with the fluctuations of the price of silver during the commitment period (i.e., the inventory would be recorded at other than market price at the date of purchase). | | | Therefore, even though MBS paid $499,000 for the silver inventory (i.e., the contract price), the inventory was recorded at the current market price of $510,000 (i.e., the purchase price plus the fair value of the firm commitment). | | | It should be noted that since MBS assessed effectiveness of the hedge based on the changes in the total fair value of the forward contract, the firm commitment and the silver inventory balances include $1,000, which represents the "time value" component of the forward contract ((100,000)*($5.00-$4.99)). |

| | I was just seeking confirmation that the current value of the forward price comes out as the spot price minus the discounted coupon payment, with this discounting being done at the shifted rate rather than the LIBOR rate. | | | Is it equal to the spot price of the bond, minus the current value of the aforementioned coupon payment as discounted by the shifted yield curve? | | | Both of these are methods for computing the present value of the bond minus the first coupon payment, but the forward price must be compounded forward to the delivery date. |
