Princess Inc. has requested a new line of credit to address the seasonality of revenues. The request is for an $9,000,000 demand loan and resulted in your lender requiring a working capital analysis. You have been assigned the task of calculating the expected line of credit requirement based on the information provided below. The lender has suggested a covenant which limits the current ratio including any demand bank loan to no worse than a 1.75:1.
