Alice’s second initiative calls for Fresh & Fruity to obtain a bank loan of a sufficient size to enable the company to take all suppliers’ discounts. What is the minimum size of this loan? (Hint: To take all suppliers’ discounts, the average payment period must be 10 days, and net purchases will be purchases – (Purchases from Figure 1 x .02).
