On the London Metals Exchange, the price for copper to be delivered in one year is $5,820 a ton. (Note: Payment is made when the copper is delivered.) The risk-free interest rate is 2.00% and the expected market return is 8%. a. Suppose that you expect to produce and sell 10,000 tons of copper next year. What is the PV of this output? Assume that the sale occurs at the end of the year. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in millions rounded to 2 decimal places.) b-1. If copper has a beta of 1.28, what is the expected price of copper at the end of the year? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) b-2. Assume copper has a beta of 1.28. What is the certainty-equivalent end-of-year price?
Suppose a trader opens a short position in two rice futures contracts. Each contract is for 5,000 kilograms. The initial margin is TZS 2,000,000 per contract, and the contract expires in 100 says. Suppose the future price decreases by TZS 500 per Kilogram per day for the first 10 days, then increases by TZS 750 per kilogram per day for the next 5 days. REQUIRED: Estimate the following: The initial margin to be deposited with clearing house The total gain/loss due to price decreases The total gain/loss due to price increase The balance in the trader's margin a/c after 15 day

Consider a six-month European call option on the spot price of gold, that is, an option to buy oneounce of gold in the spot market in six months. The strike price is $1, 200, the six-month futuresprice of gold is $1, 240, the risk-free rate of interest is 5% per annum, and the volatility of thefutures price is 20%. The option is the same as a six-month European option on the six-monthfutures price. Calculate the value of this option.
