Explanation / Answer

Wallace Company will be able to invest in short-term marketable securities in some months and will need to borrow to cover cash requirements in others. In the last six months of the year, Wallace will generate $149 to end the year with a cash surplus of $163 and a cash balance of $363. Wallace Company will want a credit line of at least $477 to cover the month with the greatest shortfall, and the financial managers can tell the bank to expect that they will be able to invest up to $396 in short-term marketable securities.
