Ha! Reminds me of the time I tried to hedge my bets on a horse race. Ended up losing my shirt. But in all seriousness, I think C is the way to go here.

I agree with Pearline. C covers all the bases - universities, airlines, and producers all need to hedge their exposure to commodity price fluctuations.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. I was leaning towards D, since the question specifically asks for 'these commodities', and the first two options seem more directly related to commodities like electricity and jet fuel.

I think the correct answer is C. Hedging applies to all the scenarios mentioned - a university locking in electricity prices, an airline locking in jet fuel prices, and a cotton producer hedging against changes in fertilizer or cotton prices.

Oh, I see. Thanks for clarifying that. It makes sense now why the correct answer is D. Hedging is more about locking in prices for future purchases to manage risk.

Actually, the correct answer is D. Only A and B are examples of hedging. The cotton producer scenario involves managing exposure to price changes, but it's not a form of hedging.
