Explanation:

To calculate the amount that will be received today, we need to discount the amount that will be received three years from now for a period of 3 years using the given discount rate. As there is only a single cash flow, we will use the formula for present value of principal.

The present value of principal is,

Present value = Cash flow / (1+d)^t

Where,

  • Cash flow is the amount for which we have to found the present value
  • d is the discount rate
  • t is the time in terms of number of periods
  • Here the t is in years and the number of periods is 3 years

Present value = 3000000 / (1+0.06)^3

Present value = 2518857.849 rounded off to $2518857.85

liberstina [14]

a. $4,322.74

b. Yes

December futures = June futures × (1 + 1.9%)

b. Yes, there is an arbitration opportunity here due to the difference between the future price of December. The real futures price for December is $1,500 and the potential price for December's parity relationship is $4,322.74
