Answer: 16 S&P 500 futures contracts
Explanation:
The number of contracts can be calculated by:
= (1 * beta) × Stock value/(Contract size * Index level)
= 1.35 × 12,000,000 / ( 250 * 3,983)
= 1.35 × 12,000,000 / 995,750
= 16 S&P 500 futures contracts

balance of trade
Explanation:
Trade can be defined as a process which typically involves the buying and selling of goods and services between a producer and the customers (consumers) at a specific period of time.
Basically, trade can be categorized into two (2) main groups and these are;
I. Import: this involves bringing in goods from a foreign country to sell in a different (domestic) country.
II. Export: it involves the sales of goods produced in a domestic country to a foreign country.
In Economics, a balance of trade is a measure of the difference between merchandise imports and exports, as well as a country's international trade in goods. Thus, it's a measure of the difference between the monetary value of the import and export of goods of a country over a specific period of time.
Answer:
$2722.82
Explanation:
Present value of loan = $1,000 * [(1+5%)^3 - 1]/ 5%
= $1,000 * (1.157625 - 1) / 0.05
= $1,000 * 0.157625/ 0.05
= $1,000 * 3.1525
= $3152.50
The present value of loan before bank restructuring is $3152.
Future value = Cash flow / (1+r)^n
= $3152 / (1+0.05)^3
= $3152 / (1.05)^3
= $3152 / 1.157625
= $2722.82
Therefore, the final payment required to pay to make indifferent for both payment is $2722.82
