Answer:

$61

Explanation:

Calculation for What futures price will allow $1,000 to be withdrawn from the margin account

Let x be the futures price

Futures price =1000 units(x-$60 per units) = $1,000 loss

x-$60=$1,000/1000 units

x-$60 = $1

x=$60+$1

x = $61

Therefore the futures price that will allow $1,000 to be withdrawn from the margin account will be $61
