Subject 7. Valuation and Analysis of Capped and Floored Floating-Rate Bonds PDF Download
We can use the arbitrage-free framework to value capped and floored floaters.

The cap provision in a floater is an issuer option that prevents the coupon rate from increasing above a specified maximum rate. The value of a capped floater should be lower than the value of an otherwise similar straight bond.

Value of capped floater = Value of straight bond - Value of embedded cap

The floor provision in a floater is an investor option that prevents the coupon from decreasing below a specified minimum rate.

Value of floored floater = Value of straight bond + Value of embedded floor
