Question

Condo Construction Company is going to First National
Bank for a loan. At the present time, the bank is willing to lend
Condo up to $1 million, with interest costs of 10%. Condo
believes that the amount of borrowed funds needed during the
current year is normally distributed, with a mean of $700,000
and a standard deviation of $300,000. If Condo needs to borrow
more money during the year, the company will have to go to
Louie the Loan Shark. The cost per dollar borrowed from
Louie is 25¢. To minimize expected interest costs for the year,
how much money should Condo borrow from the bank?
