Assume that Hogan Surgical Instruments Co$.$ has $$2,500,000$ in assets. If it goes with a low$-$liquidity plan for the assets, it can earn a return of $18$ percent, but with a high$-$liquidity plan, the return will be $14$ percent. If the firm goes with a short$-$term financing plan, the financing costs on the $$2,500,000$ will be $10$ percent, and with a long$-$term financing plan, the financing costs on the $$2,500,000$ will be $12$ percent. $($Review Table $6-11$ for parts a$,$ b$,$ and c of this problem.$)$
