And don t be bothered about what kind of flower you turn out to be. It does not matter whether you are a rose or a lotus or a marigold, what matters is flowering. Earth provides enough to satisfy every man s needs, but not every man s greed. Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished. Whenever you find me wrong, bad or rude at any point of time, at least tell me once before telling the whole world We can save many relations, If we understand as simple fact that people are not wrong. They are different. Judging a person does not define who they are. It defines who you are When you come to a point, where you have no need to impress anybody, your freedom will begin.

Chap 11B SUMMARY OF FUTURE 11BA.1 Index Particulars Summary of Topics Q No Exam RTP 11B.0 Future Futures: It is a contract to buy or sell a stated quantity of a commodity or a financial claim at a specified price at a future specified date. Obligation to Both Party Underlying Assets Settlement of Futures Features of Future The parties to the futures have to buy or sell the assets regardless of what happens to its value during the intervening period or what shall be the price on the date for which contract is finalized. Future can be of commodities such as agricultural products, oil, gold etc. or of financial claims such as shares, debentures, treasury bonds etc. The futures contract provide for the physical delivery of the assets, however in practice, all futures are settled by offsetting futures contract. Stock futures are cash settled. No delivery is made. Profits/losses of futures contracts are paid/ recovered over everyday at the end of trading day, a practice called marking to market. These profits and loss are calculated on the future price at close of trading day. No mark to market is done on the settlement day. The settlement is done on the basis of futures closing price on previous trading day and the closing spot price on the day of settlement. Standardization: Each Future contract is for a standard specified quantity, grade, coupon rate, maturity. Clearing House: An organization called future exchange will act as a clearing house. The exchange provides the counter party guarantee through its clearing house and different types of margins system. Margins: Clearing house requires the participants to keep margin money. Time Spreads: There is relationship between the spot price and the future price of contract. The difference between spot price and future price is known as time spread. Uses of Future a) Hedging: Futures are used for hedging the risk arising out of the investment b) Speculation gains (by taking the risk of speculative loss) can be made. c) Arbitrage gain can be made by comparing TFV with actual price of future 11B.1 Settlement of Future and Option on every day [Speculative Transaction] Future and options are settled every day on the basis of closing price of underlying assets Gain/Loss on every day settlement, are transferred to margin money account. On every day settlement, closing price becomes contract price for next day settlement. 1-4 M-13 Settlement of Future before maturity Settlement of Future on maturity Settlement of Long Position on Future [Purchased] Gain/Loss = Sale Purchase Purchase Price of future = Fixed at beginning Sale Price of future = Price of Future on Settlement Date Settlement of Long Position on Future [Purchased] Settlement of Short Position on Future [Sold] Gain/Loss = Sale Purchase Sale Price of future = Fixed at beginning Purchase Price of future = Price of Future on Settlement Date Settlement of Short Position on Future [Sold]

Chap 11B SUMMARY OF FUTURE 11BA.2 Gain/Loss = Sale Purchase Purchase Price of future = Fixed at beginning Sale Price of future = Price of UA on Maturity Date Gain/Loss = Sale Purchase Sale Price of future = Fixed at beginning Purchase Price of future = Price of UA on Maturity Date 11B.2 Settlement of Future or Option before maturity date 5 11B.3 Calculation of Theoretical Price of Future/Forward If there is no Income from UA If there is Income from UA Basis Contango Backwardation TFV of future = CMP of UA*(1+PIR) or CMP of UA*e rt OR TFV of future = CMP of UA + Cost to Carry(Intt Amt) TFV of future = CMP of UA*(1+PIR 1) Income from UA*(1+PIR 2) TFV of Future = (CMP of UA PV of Income from UA)*(1+PIR) In general future price is greater than the CMP of UA. In special cases, when the cost of carry is negative the future price may be lower than spot price. = Future Price CMP of UA Generally basis will decrease with time and on expiry, the basis is zero and future price equals spot price. If the future price is greater than spot price it is called contango. If the Spot price is greater than Future price it is called backwardation 6-7 8-9 N-12 11B.4 Arbitrage Opportunity If CMP of Future is not equal to TFV of Future, then Arbitrage Profit is possible as follows 10 N-09-O If CMP of Future > TFV of Future If CMP of Future < TFV of Future M-04 Today Sell Future at CMP [Creating Risk] Buy UA at CMP [Reducing Risk of(a)] Borrow required amt at interest rate given Maturity Date Gain/Loss on settlement of Future [Short Position] Sell Shares at Market Price Repayment of Borrowing with interest This is called cash and carry arbitrage Today Buy Future at CMP [Creating Risk] Sell UA at CMP [Reducing Risk of(a)] Deposit required amt at interest rate given Maturity Date Gain/Loss on settlement of Future [Long Position] Buy Shares at Market Price Realisation of Deposit with interest This is called reverse cash and carry arbitrage

Chap 11B SUMMARY OF FUTURE 11BA.3 11B.4.1 If Interest rate is compounded periodically If Interest rate is compounded periodically, then we will calculate TFV of future with compounding interest If Monthly interest = X p.m., Period of Future = 6 months TFV of 6 months Future = CMP of UA(1+PIR) n TFV of 6 months Future = CMP of UA(1+X) 6 11 M-09 11B.4.2 Calculation of arbitrage profit if dividend is paid If Dividend amt and its payment date is given 12 If CMP of Future > TFV of Future Same Process as above If CMP of Future < TFV of Future Same Process as above Additional Steps Add: FV of Income received from UA Less: Loss FV of Income Lost from UA 11B.4.3 If Dividend rate and its payment date is given Dividend Amt = Face Value*Dividend Rate 13 N-08-O 11B.4.4 If Dividend yield is given but its payment date is not given Dividend yield is return on market price of share, hence we will calculate net interest rate Net Interest = Interest Rate Dividend Yield 14 11B.4.5 Arbitrage Profit in case of Commodity Future TFV of Commodity Future = CMP of UA(1+PIR 1) + Storage Cost(1+PIR 2) 15 If CMP of Future > TFV of Future Today Sell Future at CMP [Creating Risk] Buy UA at CMP [Reducing Risk of(a)] Borrow required amt at interest rate given Maturity Date Gain/Loss on settlement of Future [Short Position] Sell Shares at Market Price Repayment of Borrowing with interest less: FV of Storage Cost If CMP of Future < TFV of Future Today Buy Future at CMP [Creating Risk] Sell UA at CMP [Reducing Risk of(a)] Deposit required amt at interest rate given Maturity Date Gain/Loss on settlement of Future [Long Position] Buy Shares at Market Price Realisation of Deposit with interest Add: FV of Storage Cost 11B.5 Hedging through Future In Forex, hedging is done in following ways: If LHC is to be sold in future, then we should sell future. If LHC is to be purchased in future, then we should buy future. 16-19 M-15 N-11 N-06 N-15 M-14

Chap 11B SUMMARY OF FUTURE 11BA.4 11B.6 Calculation of Spot price of Underlying Assets if fair value of Future is given TFV of Future = CMP of UA*(1+PIR) or CMP of UA*e rt CMP of UA = TFV of Future/(1+PIR) or TFV of Future/ e rt 20 N-11 N-06 11B.7 Convenience yield In case of some products the supply of the commodity is quite uncertain. In this case, holding the commodity in store is more convenient than buying on future basis. The convenience yield reflects the market s expectation regarding the future availability of the commodity. The greater the possibility that storages will occur, the higher the value of convenience yield and vice versa. Convenience yield is nil for the items which can not be stored. For example electricity. Future Price = (Spot Price + Storage Cost PV of Convenience yield)*(1+r) 21 11B.8 Hedge Ratio in case of hedging through It says about how much quantity of Commodity Future to be contracted for 100% hedging 22 M-12 N-14 Hedge ratio = r SD SP/SD FP N-13 11B.9 Theory What are the features of Futures Contract? 1 N-10 M-07 Distinguish between Forward and Futures contract 2 N-08 M-06 Write short notes on stock lending scheme 3 M-08 M-05

Chap 11B FUTURE 11BB.1 11B.0 Future [Nov-2010-7b-4] What are the features of Futures Contract? [May-2007-4c-4] (i) What are Stock futures? (ii) What are the opportunities offered by stock futures? (iii) How are stock futures settled? a) Futures: It is a contract to buy or sell a stated quantity of a commodity or a financial claim at a specified price at a future specified date. (i) (ii) (iii) (b) (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (c) (i) (ii) Obligation to Both Party The parties to the futures have to buy or sell the assets regardless of what happens to its value during the intervening period or what shall be the price on the date for which contract is finalized. Underlying Assets Future can be of commodities such as agricultural products, oil, gold etc. or of financial claims such as shares, debentures, treasury bonds etc. Settlement of Futures The futures contract provide for the physical delivery of the assets, however in practice, all futures are settled by offsetting futures contract. Stock futures are cash settled. No delivery is made. Profits/losses of futures contracts are paid/ recovered over everyday at the end of trading day, a practice called marking to market. These profits and loss are calculated on the future price at close of trading day. No mark to market is done on the settlement day. The settlement is done on the basis of futures closing price on previous trading day and the closing spot price on the day of settlement. Features of Future Standardization: Each Future contract is for a standard specified quantity, grade, coupon rate, maturity. Clearing House: An organization called future exchange will act as a clearing house. The exchange provides the counter party guarantee through its clearing house and different types of margins system. Margins: Clearing house requires the participants to keep margin money. Time Spreads: There is relationship between the spot price and the future price of contract. The difference between spot price and future price is known as time spread. Opportunities offered by Stock futures Stock futures offer high leverage. This means that one can take large position with less capital. For example, paying 20% initial margin one can take position for 100%, i.e., 5 times the cash outflow. Futures may look over-priced or under-priced compared to the spot price and can offer opportunities to arbitrage and earn riskless profit. Ex of Future or Forward Contract Today date = 01/01/2012 CMP of Share of Reliance = Rs 1000 = known as spot price Mr A wants to purchase share of Reliance on 31/03/2012, but he has fear that price of share may go up, then how he can hedge himself from rising of prices. For hedging, he may enter into (i) Call Option (ii) Forward Contract (iii) Future (iv) Index Future Understanding of Forward Contract Mr A has entered into Contract for purchase of 100 shares of Reliance directly from Mr B with following terms & Conditions Contract price of Share = Rs.1050 [known as Forward Price, Specified Price]

(f) Both the party has an obligation to fulfill the contract. (g) The above contact can be interpreted as Mr A has purchase Forward Contract @1050 due on 25/03/2012 for 100 shares Understanding of Future Contract Mr A has entered into Contract for purchase of 100 shares of Reliance though Stock Exchange from Mr B with following terms & Conditions Maturity Date = Last Thursday of March [Fixed] Contract price of Share = Rs.1050 [known as March Future Price] Under Standing of above Contract (a) The above contract is known as Future. Future is recognized by Month (Like Jan Future, Feb Future, March Future) (b) Risk of above contract lies with Stock Exchange in case of default by each party. (c) Maturity Date for March Future will be last Thursday of Month (d) Quantity of Underlying Assets is fixed by stock exchange in lot for each future. (e) CMP of share is Rs.1000 while CMP of March Future is Rs.1050. (f) Both the party has an obligation to fulfill the contract. (g) The above contact can be interpreted as Mr A has purchase March Future @1050 due on last Thursday of March for 100 shares (h) Share is known as underlying assets for future. (i) (j) By purchasing future, Mr A has fixed its purchased price. By selling Mr B has fixed its selling price. [Known as hedging] Mr A is known as in Long position and Mr B is known as in Short Position (k) Mr A and Mr B both enter into contract with Stock Exchange but not with each other. (l) Both the parties have to deposit margin money with the stock exchange, say Rs.10000 (m) Future is settled every day and any surplus and deficit is added to or deducted from margin money account. (n) Every day there will be two prices. [First one is price of Underlying Assets and Second one is price of Future of each month] Now suppose, Actual price of share and March future increase or decrease as follows Date Actual price of Share Actual price of March Future Future is settled every day on the basis of Future price Gain/(Loss) to Mr A Balance in Margin Money Gain/(L oss) to Mr B Balance in Margin Money 05/01/2012 Rs.1020 Rs.1060 (1060-1050)*100 = 1000 11000-1000 9000 25/01/2012 Rs.1030 Rs.1070 (1070-1060)*100 = 1000 12000-1000 8000 05/02/2012 Rs.1050 Rs.1120 (1120-1070)*100 = 5000 17000-5000 3000 25/02/2012 Rs.1010 Rs.1055 (1055-1120)*100 = - 6500 10500 +6500 9500 15/03/2012 Rs.980 Rs.1010 (1010-1055)*100 = - 4500 6000 +4500 14000 20/03/2012 Rs.1010 Rs.1015 (1015-1010)*100 = 500 6500-500 13500 30/03/2012 Rs.1040 Rs.1045 (1045-1015)*100 = 3000 9500-3000 10500 31/03/2012 [Settlement Day] Rs.1030 Rs.1030 (1030-1045)*100 = - 1500 8000 +1500 12000 Case-1 Final Settlement as on 31/03/2013 [Speculative Profit/Loss] Gain/(Loss) to Mr A = Sale Price (In Market) Purchase Price (Contracted Price) = Rs.1030 Rs.1050 = - Rs.2000 [Loss]

Chap 11B FUTURE 11BB.3 Gain/(Loss) to Mr B = Sale Price (Contracted Price) Purchase Price (From Market) = Rs.1050 Rs.1030 = + Rs.2000 [Gain] Case-2 Final Settlement as on 31/03/2013 [Hedging] Purchase Price of Share to Mr A = Rs.1050 Sale Price of Share for Mr A = Rs.1050 Case-3 Suppose Mr A wants to Settle March Future on 05/02/2012. Originally Mr A has purchased Future of March @1050 Now to cancel original purchase future on 05/02/2012, Mr A will have to sale March Future @1120 for 100 shares Gain or Loss to Mr A on early settlement = Sale Price (New Contract) Purchase Price (Old Contract) = Rs.1120 1050 = Rs.70*100 = Rs.7000 Profit Other Concepts of Future Contract (a) Any person can purchase/sale March Future before 31.03.2012 (b) At a time three future are being traded in the market. Say in the month of Jan, Jan Future, Feb Future and March Future are being traded in the market. (c) In case of Long Position, gain will arise if price of share increases and vice versa. (d) In case of Short Position, gain will arise if price of share decreases and vice versa. (c) Uses of Future Hedging: Futures are used for hedging the risk arising out of the investment Speculation gains (by taking the risk of speculative loss) can be made. Arbitrage gain can be made by comparing TFV with actual price of future 11B.1 Settlement of Future and Option on every day [Speculative Transaction] [Q-1 to 4] ICAI RTP ICWA M-13 1 (a) (b) (c) Future and options are settled every day on the basis of closing price of underlying assets Gain/Loss on every day settlement, are transferred to margin money account.

What trader can do to mitigate its risk of reduces profit? If he decides to make use of future market what would be effective realized price for its sale when after 6 months is spot price is Rs.17.50 per kg and future contract price for 6 months is Rs.17.55. 11B.2 Settlement of Future or Option before maturity date [Q-5] ICAI RTP ICWA Question-5 [ICWA-Dec-2004] An investor purchased Reliance November Future (600 shares Tick size) at Rs.542 and write at Rs.580 November call option at a premium of Rs.6 (600 shares Tick size). As on November 20 spot price rises and so the future price and the call premium. Future price rises to Rs.575 and call premium rises to Rs.12. Find out profit/loss of the investor. If he/she settles the transaction on that date and at stated prices. Brokerage is 0.05% for the transaction value of futures and strike price net of call premium for option. 11B.3 Calculation of Theoretical Price of Future/Forward [Q-6 to 9] ICAI RTP ICWA N-12 7 (a) If there is no Income from UA TFV of future = CMP of UA*(1+PIR) or CMP of UA*e rt OR TFV of future = CMP of UA + Cost to Carry(Intt Amt) (b) If there is Income from UA TFV of future = CMP of UA*(1+PIR 1 ) Income from UA*(1+PIR 2 ) (c) (d) (e) (f) OR TFV of Future = (CMP of UA PV of Income from UA)*(1+PIR) In general future price is greater than the CMP of UA. In special cases, when the cost of carry is negative the future price may be lower than spot price. Basis = Future Price CMP of UA Generally basis will decrease with time and on expiry, the basis is zero and future price equals spot price. Contango: If the future price is greater than spot price it is called contango. Backwardation: If the Spot price is greater than Future price it is called backwardation.

What should be the spot price of Underlying Share? 11B.7 Convenience yield [Q-21] ICAI RTP ICWA (a) (b) In case of some products the supply of the commodity is quite uncertain. In this case, holding the commodity in store is more convenient than buying on future basis. The convenience yield reflects the market s expectation regarding the future availability of the commodity. The greater the possibility that storages will occur, the higher the value of convenience yield and vice versa. Convenience yield is nil for the items which can not be stored. For example electricity. Future Price = (Spot Price + Storage Cost PV of Convenience yield)*(1+r) Question-21 3 months futures contract of an industrial input, having irregular supply, is being traded at Rs.1000 per ton.

[May-2007-4c-4] (i) What are Stock futures? (ii) What are the opportunities offered by stock futures? (iii) How are stock futures settled?

Chap 11B FUTURE 11BB.11 (a) (i) (ii) (iii) (b) (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (c) (i) (ii) Futures: It is a contract to buy or sell a stated quantity of a commodity or a financial claim at a specified price at a future specified date. Obligation to Both Party The parties to the futures have to buy or sell the assets regardless of what happens to its value during the intervening period or what shall be the price on the date for which contract is finalized. Underlying Assets Future can be of commodities such as agricultural products, oil, gold etc. or of financial claims such as shares, debentures, treasury bonds etc. Settlement of Futures The futures contract provide for the physical delivery of the assets, however in practice, all futures are settled by offsetting futures contract. Stock futures are cash settled. No delivery is made. Profits/losses of futures contracts are paid/ recovered over everyday at the end of trading day, a practice called marking to market. These profits and loss are calculated on the future price at close of trading day. No mark to market is done on the settlement day. The settlement is done on the basis of futures closing price on previous trading day and the closing spot price on the day of settlement. Features of Future Standardization: Each Future contract is for a standard specified quantity, grade, coupon rate, maturity. Clearing House: An organization called future exchange will act as a clearing house. The exchange provides the counter party guarantee through its clearing house and different types of margins system. Margins: Clearing house requires the participants to keep margin money. Time Spreads: There is relationship between the spot price and the future price of contract. The difference between spot price and future price is known as time spread. Opportunities offered by Stock futures Stock futures offer high leverage. This means that one can take large position with less capital. For example, paying 20% initial margin one can take position for 100%, i.e., 5 times the cash outflow. Futures may look over-priced or under-priced compared to the spot price and can offer opportunities to arbitrage and earn riskless profit. Question-2 [May-2006-2bi-4] [Nov-2008-O-6d-5] Distinguish between Forward and Futures contract. There major differences between the traditional forward contract and a futures contract. Feature Forward Contract Futures Contract Amount Flexible Standard amount Maturity Any valid business date agreed to by the two parties Standard date. Usually one delivery date such as the second Tuesday of every month Furthest maturity Date Open 12 months forward Currencies traded All currencies Majors Cross rates Available in one contract; Multiple contracts avoided Usually requires two contracts Market-place Global network Regular markets futures market and exchanges Price fluctuations No daily limit in many Currencies Daily price limit set by exchange Risk Depends on counter Party Minimal due to margin Requirements Honouring of Contract By taking and giving Delive Mostly by a reverse transaction Cash flow None until maturity date Initial margin plus ongoing variation margin

The lender retains all the incident of ownership other than the voting rights. The borrower is entitled to use the securities /shares as required but is liable to the lender for all benefits such as dividend interest rights etc. The basic purpose of stock borrower is to cover the short sales i.e. selling the shares without possessing them. SEBI has introduced scheme for securities lending and borrowing in 1997. Advantages (a) Lenders to get return (as lending charges) from it, instead of keeping it idle. (b) Borrower uses it to avoid settlement failure and loss due to auction. (c) From the view-point of market this facilitates timely settlement, increase in settlement, reduce market volatility and improves liquidity. (d) This prohibits fictitious bull run. The borrower has to deposit the collateral securities, which could be cash, bank guarantees, government securities or certificates of deposits or other securities, with the approved intermediary. In case, the borrower fails to return the securities, he will be declared a defaulter and the approved intermediary will liquidate the collateral deposited with it. In the event of default, the approved intermediary is liable for making good the loss caused to the lender. The borrower cannot discharge his liabilities of returning the equivalent securities through payment in cash or kind. National Securities Clearing Corporation Ltd. (NSCCL), Stock Holding Corporation of India (SHCIL), Deutsche Bank, Reliance Capital etc. are the registered and approved intermediaries for the purpose of stock lending scheme. NSCCL proposes to offer a number of schemes, including the Automated Lending and Borrowing Mechanism (ALBM), automatic borrowing for settlement failures and case by case borrowing.
