XYZ, Inc., has a seasonal pattern to its business. It borrows under a line of credit from Central Bank at 1% over prime. Its total asset requirements now (at year end) and estimated requirements for the coming year are in millions):

	Now	Q1	Q2	Q3	Q4
Total asset requirements	$4.0	$5.2	$5.4	$3.2	$5.8

Assume that these requirements are level throughout the quarter. At present the company has $4.0 million in equity capital plus long-term debt plus the permanent component of current liabilities, and this amount will remain constant throughout the year.

The prime rate currently is 3.00%, and the company expects no change in this rate for the next year. Mendez Metal Specialties is also considering issuing intermediate-term debt at an interest rate of 5.5%. In this regard, three alternative amounts are under consideration: zero, $0.6 million, and $1.2 million. All additional funds requirements will be borrowed under the company's bank line of credit.

What the total borrowing costs for alternative 1: (line of credit only)? (Assume that there are no changes in current liabilities other than borrowings.)
