You are long $10$ gold futures contracts, established at an initial settle price of $$1,300$ per ounce, where each contract

represents $100$ troy ounces. Your initial margin to establish the position is $$12,000$ per contract and the maintenance margin is

$$11,200$ per contract. Over the subsequent four trading days, gold settles at $$1,295,$$$1,290,$$$1,305,$ and $$1,315,$ respectively.

Compute the balance in your margin account at the end of each of the four trading days, and compute your total profit or loss

at the end of the trading period. Assume that a margin call requires you to fund your account back to the initial margin

requirement. $($Leave no cells blank $-$ be certain to enter $"0"$ wherever required. Input all amounts as positive values. The

daily margin amount is the daily balance prior to any margin call for that day.$)$

Answer is complete but not entirely correct.
