3x12 FRA means that the contract will expire after 3 months and that the loan is to be taken for 12-3 =9 months
After 60 days, Theoretical interest rates for 9 months at the expiry
= (1+ 300 days interest rate * 300/360) / (1+30 days interest rate* 30/360) - 1
= (1+0.0562*300/360) / (1+ 0.055*30/360) - 1
=0.042057 which is the interest rate for 9 months or 270 days
This is equivalent to an annual interest rate of 0.042057*360/270 =0.056076 = 5.6076%
As the FRA was shorted at 6.5% and the interest rate now is expected to be 5.6076% for the 9 month loan, the position is in profit
The value of FRA at the end of loan period
= principal * (contracted rate - theoretical rate) * 270/360
=$20000000*(0.065-0.056076)*270/360
=$133860
Value of FRA today = Present value of $133860 discounted for 300 days
= 133860/ (1+0.0562*300/360)
=$127871.36 which is the required market value of FRA
