The company has a line of credit with the local bank that allows it to be borrow funds in months that it would not otherwise have a minimum balance of $25,000. If the company has more than $25,000 at the end of any given month, it use the excess funds to pay off any outstanding line of credit balance. Each Month, Woodlawn Manufacturing pays interest on the prior month's line of credit ending balance.
