Answer:  

E. buyer; take; seller; make

Explanation:

A forward contract is a private agreement or a customized contract   between two parties giving the buyer an obligation to purchase an asset (and the seller an obligation to sell an asset) at a set price at a future point in time.

If you plan to grow 500 orange trees five years, you could sell your oranges for whatever the price is when you harvest it, or you could lock in a price now by selling a forward contract that obligates you to sell 500 orange trees to , say, Orange juice company after the harvest for a fixed price. By locking in the price now, you eliminate the risk of falling orange prices. On the other hand, if prices rise later, you will get only what your contract entitles you to.

If you are Orange juice company, you might want to purchase a forward contract to lock in prices and control your costs. However, you might end up overpaying or (hopefully) underpaying for the orange depending on the market price when you take delivery of the orange.

What business messages are better organized directly, and which is better organized indirectly?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Generally speaking, a business message expressing negative news (reader will react negatively) should be organized indirectly. The message should be delivered among other information and should not stand out. This is only appropriate if it is practical to deliver the message in this way (immediate action is not required). A more positive message should be prominent in the communication and expressed in a more direct way, since it is assumed that the reader will react positively.
