Its price adjusts in proportion to excess demand at the rate

dP = 0.28(Qd - Qs)
dt

where t is measured in months. The current spot price is $29.35 a tonne. In 4 months' time your company will need to buy a large amount of this commodity. If someone offers you a forward contract and guarantees to supply the amount you need at a price of $24.75 would it be worth signing this contract?
