Seth McDonald grows corn.  In May, he decides to sell 3 contracts, about half of his expected crop, for December delivery.  The contract price is $3.65 per bushel and the contract size is 5,000 bushels.  Shortly before the delivery date, corn is selling in the spot (immediate delivery) market for $3.85 per bushel.
◦ Seth will simply let the contract expire and sell his corn in the spot market.
◦ Seth can protect his profit by buying an offsetting contract.
◦ Seth has an opportunity loss of $3,000 because he must deliver corn at the lower price.
◦ Seth can hold on to his corn for several months and hope that the price to rises enough to offset his loss.
