MV is the market value of the floater, including accrued interest; INT is the next interest payment; FV is the face (or par) value; PVANN is the present value of the annuity representing the difference between the quoted margin (QM) and the discount margin (DM), y is the yield used to discount the future cash flows, and t/T is the fraction of the period that has gone by.
