Can anyone explain me the accounting of Interest rate swaps. Diagramatically I understand IRS is borrow @ floating rate of interest and lend @ Fixed rate of Interest or vice versa. i.e. pay floating and receive fixed or vice versa.

Swaps are arranged so that the cost of funding whether fixed or floating can be reduced to minimum.....
Yes Nitesh I know you are right it reduces the cost of finances. But my query is which account to be debited and which account to be credited and by what amount ?
