Suppose that the price of corn is risky, with a beta of $0\mathrm{.}5.$ The monthly storage cost is $$0\mathrm{.}04$ per bushel, and the current spot price is $$2\mathrm{.}89,$ with an expected spot price in three months of $$3\mathrm{.}09.$ If the expected rate of return on the market is $1\mathrm{.}7\%$ per month, with a risk$-$free rate of $1\mathrm{.}1\%$ per month, what is the expected futures cost? $($Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to $2$ decimal places.$)$
