Here are a couple of examples taken from MF Global statements.
The image2 example works out to a BPV of 4167.00: - - - - (625.05 / 5) / 0.030 = 4167.00
The image1 example works out to a BPV of 4166.80: - - - - (520.85 / 5) / 0.025 = 4166.80
The difference between the first one and the second one, works out to a BPV of 4168.00: - - - - ((625.05 - 520.85) / 5) / 0.005 = 4168.00
Surprise! The BPV is either 4166.8, or else it's 4167.0, or else 4168.0
It's a fun little word problem in mathematics, to translate the language of the exchange's Contract Specification into a Big Point Value. Particularly the part where they "round to the next nearest cent per contract". http://www.cmegroup.com/trading/interes ... tions.html
