Answer:

500,000 Pesos (MXN) is the June Futures Contract

Number of Contracts Sold = 8

Initial Exchange Rate = 0.10773$ / MXN

Initial Position Value = 8 x 500000 x 0.10773

Initial Position Value = $430,920

i. Final Exchange Rate = $0.12002 / MXN

Final Position Value = 8 x 500000 x 0.12002 = $480,080

Net Position Value = 430920 - 480080 = - $49,160

ii. Final Exchange Rate = $0.09802 / MXN

Final Position Value = 8 x 500000 x 0.09802 = $392,080

Net Position Value = 430920 - 392080 = $3,884
