Answer: Loss of $950

Explanation:

You bought the contract at $2.29 per bushel.

The corn contract at the time was actually $2.10.

You bought the futures contract for more than the spot price for the same time period so this is a loss.

Loss = Loss per unit * number of units

= (2.29 - 2.10) * 5,000

= 0.19 * 5,000

= $950
