Respuesta :

Answer:

$270.4

Explanation:

Calculation for What should the futures price be if the maturity of the contract is 2 years

Using this formula

Future Price= Stock Price ×(1 + Risk Free rate)^Maturity years

Let plug in the formula

Future Price=$250×(1+4%)^2

Future Price=$250×(1+0.04)^2

Future Price$250×(1.04)^2

Future Price=$250×1.0816

Future Price=$270.4

Therefore What should the futures price be if the maturity of the contract is 2 years will be $270.4
