Imagine yourself a corn farmer

a. Imagine yourself a corn farmer (it’s easy if you try…). Corn is currently selling for $3.50 per bushel. The September futures contract for 5,000 bushels (Symbol: ZIN2) is selling for $3.75 per bushel, a price that reflects storage and transportation, plus opportunity costs. Describe, in detail, the specific steps you would take to protect the value of your corn crop by trading futures contracts. Assume the cash price of corn is $3.00 when you take your crop to market at contract maturity in late September. Assume you will take 50,000 bushels to market. Show all calculations and notional values.b. Now imagine that you plan to buy 50,000 bushels of corn in September.2. a. Your equity portfolio is worth $1 million and perfectly tracks the S&P 500. The September futures contract for ES (the e-mini contract) is priced at 2100.00. Assume The S&P 500 index is 1,950.00 when you close your contracts just prior to maturity. Each point of the futures contract is worth $50. Describe, in detail, the steps you would take hedge your entire portfolio with futures contracts. You must show all values, including notional values.

The support team was available upon request. For the past two semesters I have been stressing on receiving my assignments on expected achievement dates. I value your service and hope that you all would improve your teamwork. I have been using this service now for 2-years and was totally satisfied. With this being said, I have spent at least a thousand plus dollars with this company. Knowing there are other competing companies that are on the market for a lot less than you guys are charging. "I trust that you all would get it together and avoid last minute communication which increases stress to the student."
