期货合约的到期价格
A futures trader goes long one futures contract at $450. The settlement price 1 day before expiration is $500. On expiration day, the future is trading at $505. The least likely way the futures trader will lock in her profits on expiration is:
A.        take delivery of the underlying asset and pay $500 to the short.
B.        close out the futures position by selling the futures contract at $505.
C.        take delivery of the underlying asset and pay the expiration settlement price to the short at $505 at expiration
 
答案:C
由于期货合约是marked to market,所以在到期日的前一天他的帐面收益是50,相当于Long方的购买价格是500(原来的价格是450,现在有50的收益),则到期日时,Long方支付的价格是500 (the price one day before the expiration day)
