　　A. As per UK law， this is a wager and so the contract is void.

　　B. As per the State of NY Insurance Department， this is an insurance contract.

　　C. As per the State of NY Insurance Department， this is not an insurance contract， but a financial derivative.

　　D. None of the above.

　　25. A trader buys one wheat contract (underlying = 5，000 bushels) at a price of $1.89 per bushel. The initial margin on the contract is $4，800 and the maintenance margin is $3，200. At what price will the trader receive a maintenance margin call？

　　A. $1.25.

　　B. $1.57.

　　C. $2.21.

　　D. $2.53.

　　Correct answer： B

　　The trader would have to post a margin of $4，800 at the outset and would receive a margin call if the value of this margin fell to $3，200. Thus the margin call would come when the contract lost $1，600 (= $4，800 - $3，200) of is value. This translates in to a price level = Current price Dollar loss/Underlying quantity = $1.89 - $1，600 / 5，000 = $1.57.
