    Proceeds from sale = 1000 * $47 = $47,000

    Initial margin = $30,550 * 0.65 = $30,550

    So, Assets

    Proceeds from sale: $47,000

    Initial margin deposit: $30,550

    Total: $77,550

    And, Liabilities and account equity

    Short position: $47,000

    Account equity: $30,550

    Total: $77,550
