Abstract: A message may be used to update computing system of a commodity transaction. The message may include a commodity identifier, a date term, a quantity term, and a price term. The price term may include a formula arrangement or reference to a formula arrangement for calculating a fractional exposure of the entity to the commodity on each date in which an event affecting commodity transaction occurs. Each of these fractional exposures may be calculated for each commodity transaction and stored as separate entries in a data structure. The entries may then be updated, queried, and/or reorganized to generate an exposure position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a motor vehicle having a power train wherein the engine can drive an automatic transmission by way of an automatic clutch. The gear ratio of the transmission is selectable by a first drive and a second drive is employed to shift the transmission into the selected gear. The two drives are mounted on the transmission case by way of a common base plate. Novel kinematic transmission lines connect the drives to the ratio selecting and gear shifting components of the transmission. One of the transmission lines employs a transmission stage, a carrier for translation of rotary movement into axial movement, and an element for transfer of axial movement to the transmission. The translation of movement of the drive in a selection process takes place by way of two transmission stages.
