I used NullCalendar still noticing the rates are not close to Fabozzi's numbers. Any suggestions?
 
Thanks

------------------------------
Faboozi calculated casflows as follows.
 
Futures rate = 100 -Eurodollar Future Price. (In the following table second column represents futures rate).
 
Cash flow = notional amount  * futures rate * ( days in period / 360). The first column represents cash flow per each quarter.
 
period forward rate = annual forward rate * (days in period / 360)
 
forward discount factor of period 1  = 1 /  (1 + (period forward rate of 1 /100) )
 
In general
     forward discount factor of period t = 1  / (  (1 + (period forward rate of 1 /100) ) * (1 + (period forward rate of 2 /100) ) * .... * (1 + (period forward rate of t /100) )  )
 
PV of Cash flow of period t =  Cash flow of period t *  forward discount factor of period t.
 Last column in the followig table was calculated using the above formula.
 
 
Amount: 1012500-----Rate:0.0405----Days: 90 --- 1002351 (PV of Cash Flow)
Amount: 1049028-----Rate:0.0415----Days: 91 --- 1027732
