A trader enters into a one-year short contract to sell an asset for $60 when the spot price is $58. The spot price in one year proves to be $63. What is the traders gain or loss one-year from now?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$3 loss

Explanation:

Given that

Selling value of an asset = $60

Spot price at that time = $58

The Spot price in one year = $63

So, the now the gain or loss for one year would be

= Selling value of an asset - Spot price in one year

= $60 - $63

= $3 loss

Since we have to find out for one year so we considered the price for one year i.e selling price and the spot price
