In order to make a profit from the futures contracts, it would be appropriate to take a long position in the June futures contract(buy) and take a short position in the December futures contract.
The investor would borrow $60 today which would necessitate paying back $60 plus a half-year in interest payment.
loan repayment=$60*(1+5%/2)=$ 61.50
In December, sell crude oil at $66 and repay the loan principal and interest
profit=$66-$61.50=$4.50

Explanation:
The whole Volkswagen scandal was a huge and elaborate corporate scam. They first tried to blame engineers in their North American division, but then it was known that they cheated in Germany and other European countries, as well as in factories in Argentina and Brazil. The only place that they were not investigated was in China, and that is very suspicious because half of their cars are produced and sold in China. It was a huge cover up operation that was aimed at protecting top executives in Germany.
The first car I bought with my salary was a Jetta (it was much cheaper than a Civic). So I read a lot about the scandal and its effects were not that large in North and South America, but in Europe the allegedly clean diesel engines drove their competition out of the market. French car manufacturers Citroen and Peugeot competed against Volkswagen with diesel cars and after not being able to compete against the wonderful new engines, they went bankrupt. In Europe gas is very expensive, so cars are very small and fuel efficient. The strange coincidence is that a Chinese company bought Citroen and Peugeot, which made them the real winners of the whole situation.
Answer:
E. $78
Explanation:
The computation of the net present value is shown below:
Net present value is
= Initial investment + year cash inflows ÷ (1 + discount rate)^number of years + year cash inflows ÷ (1 + discount rate)^number of years
= -$150 + $175 ÷ 1.15 + $100 ÷ 1.15^2
= $77.78
= $78
Hence, the correct option is E. $78
