A manufacturer expects to be paid $10$ million euros in two months for the sale of equipment in Europe. Currently, $1$ euro $=$ US$$1,$ and the manufacturer would like to lock$-$in that exchange rate.

Assuming that $1$ contract is for $100,000$ euros and that the exchange requires a $1,000$ euros per contract margin requirement to trade on the exchange, outline a hedging strategy $($along with the requisite calculations to demonstrate the success or failure of the strategy$)$ that the manufacturer can use via the futures market to negate any losses due to foreign currency risk. Assume that the euro$/$US$ rate is $1$ euro $=$ US$$0\mathrm{.}95$ in two months$$ time.
