To calculate the 12-month futures price for Unico Delta stock, we use the formula for pricing equity futures, considering the current stock price, dividend yield, and the risk-free rate (LIBOR in this case):

Where:

* S is the current stock price ($20)
* r is the risk-free rate (3% or 0.03)
* d is the dividend yield (5% or 0.05)
* t is the time to maturity (1 year)
Plugging in the values:
=20×(0.030.05)×1F=20×e(0.030.05)×1 =20×0.02F=20×e0.02 20×0.9802F20×0.9802 20.04F20.04 Therefore, the 12-month futures contract will trade at approximately $20.04.
