Answer:

A: $127.2

B: $123.384, $3.816 per share and $3,816 per contract

C: 9.43%

Explanation:

A: Futures price

F° = S° (1 + rₙ) = $120 x 1.06

= $127.20

B: Change in Future Price and Investor Margin account:

New Spot = $120 (1 – 0.03)

= $120 x 0.97

= $116.40

New Futures = $116.40 (1.06)

= $123.384

The long investor loses = $127.20 - $123.384

= $3.816 per share

or $3.816 (1,000) = $3,816 per contract

C: Percentage return on the investor’s position:

Percentage return = $12,000 / $127,200

= 9.43%

What is a plan to help you reach your financial goals called?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:     Primemerica

Explanation: Its a financial company where you get to build a business within the company. You will be helping families financially. You going to help people get out of debt, make sure they have the right amount of life insurance coverage, and show them how to reach their goals (such as saving for retirement, college fund, vacation, buying a house, or whatever their goals are). Most people don't have a plan on how to reach their goals. Without a plan, their goals will never come true because there are too many distractions in life.

Besides helping families, you can also recruit people into your business and every recruit has the same opportunity as you do. Why recruit? For one, there's only 24 hours in a day and you are just 1 person. How much work can you do by yourself? If you recruit people, more work gets done. Second, you get to make new friends by recruiting. Third, you override your recruits. That means every time your recruit helps a family, the company pays you an override. An override is not a split in commissions. Its profits earn from a sale. That's how every business work. For example, if you worked at McDonalds, every time you sell a burger, the company earns a profit. Do you think the owner of a McDonalds restaurant is there? Of course not. He or she is probably enjoying life.

Override leads to freedom. The top earners in this company earning millions of dollars per year really don't do any work anymore. They live off overrides and residual income (which is work they done in the past continues to pay them forever). Some of these million dollar earners do training and teach others valuable lessons on how to build a business. If you look at the background of these million dollar earners, most of them came from a poverty or middle class families. Are these people any better than you or me? Of course not. They just worked harder than anyone else. Will you get to be a million dollar earner? Only if you work as hard as they did and do it long enough. It all depends on how badly you want it and how much do you believe in yourself.

You have graduated from college and, after working hard for ten years, have scraped enough money together to make a down payment
sasho [114]

Answer:

A conspiracy crime

Explanation:

Note that the tem consipiracy could also mean knowingly supporting directly or indirectly in a set course of action with another.

Thus, since the homeowner did not prevent the illegal actions of her acquaintance out of loyalty for her, the homeowner became part of an illegal drug sale conspiracy. This is further evident from the fact that the homeowner

gave the acquaintance three weeks to move out; in a sense giving more ample time for the illegal transactions.
