Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Futures contracts are traded on exchanges. Futures contracts typically specify a quantity of the underlying asset to be delivered but do not fix what the price will be on the settlement date when the asset is delivered. Futures contracts are standardized in terms of the quantity of the underlying asset to be delivered and the settlement dates for the available contracts.
