    Answer: $33.24

    Explanation: Forward price is the predetermination of the price of a present product now for a predetermined price in the nearest future.

    It is calculated thus:

    F = S x e^ (r*t)

    F=Spot rate * 2.7183^ (risk free rate * time)

    F = 25 * 2.7183 ^ (9.5% * 3)

    F = 25 * 2.7183^ (0.095*3)

    F=25 * 2.7183^ (0.285)

    F = 25 * 1.32976

    F=33.24
