A) $125 loss.
B) $125 profit.
C) $1,060.50 loss.
D) $1,062.50 profit.
E) None of the options are correct.

The profit or loss from the spot market transaction and the futures market transaction must be calculated separately and then combined to determine the overall profit or loss. The spot market transaction involves selling the Treasury bonds at the initial spot price and buying them back at the later spot price. The futures market transaction involves buying a futures contract at the initial futures price and selling it at the later futures price. The calculations for each market must consider the price changes in terms of 32nds of a dollar, as Treasury bond prices are quoted in this manner. The overall profit or loss is the sum of the profit or loss from each transaction. The provided choices do not accurately reflect the correct calculation based on the given price changes in the spot and futures markets.
