Assume that, under the aggressive strategy, longterm funds finance permanent needs and short-term funds are used to finance seasonal needs. c. Assuming that short-term funds cost 12% annually and that the cost of longterm funds is 17% annually, use the averages found in part a to calculate the total cost of each of the strategies described in part b. d. Discuss the profitability risk trade-offs associated with the aggressive strategy and those associated with the conservative strategy.
