Lipman Auto Parts, a family-owned auto parts store, began January with \($10,300\) cash. Management forecasts that collections from credit customers will be \($11,400\) in January and \($14,800\) in February. The store is scheduled to receive \($5,000\) cash on a business note receivable in January. Projected cash payments include inventory purchases (\($13,000\) in January and \($13,600\) in February) and operating expenses (\($2,700\) each month).

Lipman Auto Parts’ bank requires a \($10,000\) minimum balance in the store’s checking account. At the end of any month when the account balance dips below \($10,000\), the bank automatically extends credit to the store in multiples of $1,000.

Lipman Auto Parts borrows as little as possible and pays back loans in quarterly installments of \($2,000\), plus 4% interest on the entire unpaid principal. The first payment occurs three months after the loan.
