The company must maintain a minimum cash balance of $20,000. At 12% interest, an open line of credit is available at a local bank. If funds are needed, they must be borrowed at the beginning of the month in which they will be needed. If there are excess funds at the end of the month, the company will pay all or part of the loan on a FIFO basis plus interest due on the amount of principal being repaid. All borrowing and principle repayments must be in multiples of $1,000.

The company has planned to purchase a vacant lot costing $15,000 in May.
