A portfolio manager owns Macrogrow, Inc., which is currently trading at $35 per share. She plans to sell the stock in 120 days but is concerned about a possible price decline. She decides to take a short position in a 120-day forward contract on the stock. The stock will pay a $0.50 per share dividend in 35 days and $0.50 again in 125 days. The risk-free rate is 4%. The value of the trader’s position in the forward contract in 45 days, assuming in 45 days the stock price is $27.50 and the risk-free rate has not changed, is closest to:
PVD=0.5*exp(-4%*35/365)=0.4981
S45=(35-0.4981)*exp(4%*45/365)=34.6724
V=-(27.5-34.6724)=7.1724
