  2. Outline • Spot and futures prices for non-dividend paying investment assets • Spot and futures prices for investment assets paying a known income • Spot and futures prices for investment assets paying a known yield/return • Spot and futures prices for commodities with storage costs • Spot and futures prices for consumption commodities with storage costs • The cost of carry • The valuation of forward contracts
