It is July and the contracts must be closed out in December of this year. Long-term interest rates are currently 16.30 percent. If they increase to 17.50 percent, assume the value of the contracts will go down by 15 percent. Also, if interest rates do increase by 1.2 percent, assume the firm will have additional interest expense on its business loans and other commitments of $90,000. This expense, of course, will be separate from the futures contracts. a. What will be the profit or loss on the futures contract if interest rates increase to 17.50 percent by December when the contract is closed out
