A trader buys four September futures contracts on orange juice when the futures price is 160 cents per lb. of orange juice Each contract is for the delivery of 15,000 lbs of the orange juice. How much does the trader lose or gain if the orange juice price at the end of the contract is 145 cents per pound?
Homework Answers

Future contract price Fp=160 cents/lbs
Number of Contract N=4
Quantity in each contract L=15000 lbs
Price at end of contract P=145cents/lbs
