Explanation:
To determine what you need to do with your peanut butter stock, you must first determine if the quantity demanded for peanut butter will increase or decrease and at what percentage. To do this we can use the following formula:
change in peanut butter sales = income elasticity of demand x average change in income

Operator bought a futures contract = 5,000 kilograms of rice at $1.50 per kilogram
Initial margin = $4,000
Maintenance margin = $2,000
(a)
(i) Balance of Margin = Initial margin - maintenance margin
= $4,000 - $2,000
= $2,000 (loss)
(ii) Change in price = 
= $0.40
(b) Price per kilogram = Current price - Change in Price
= $1.50 - $0.40
= $1.10
So, change price per kg is $1.10
(c) Balance of Margin = Initial margin - maintenance margin
= $4,000 + $2,000
= $6,000 (loss)
Change in price = 
= $0.40
(d) Price per kg = Current price - change in price
= $1.50 + $0.40
= $1.90
