promises to have a minimum cash balance of $40,000 at each
month-end. In return, the bank has agreed that the company can
borrow up to $150,000 at a monthly interest rate of 1%, paid on the
last day of each month. The interest is computed based on the
beginning balance of the loan for the month. The company repays
loan principal with any cash in excess of $40,000 on the last day
of each month. The company has a cash balance of $40,000 and a loan
balance of $80,000 at January 1.
