In return, the bank has agreed that the company can borrow up to $150,000 at a monthly interest rate of 1%, paid on the last day of each month. The interest is computed based on the beginning balance of the loan for the month. The company repays loan principal with any cash in excess of $40,000 on the last day of each month. The company has a cash balance of $40,000 and a loan balance of $80,000 at January 1.

Explanation:

Like all budgets, a cash budget is a financial planning tool for management to forecast the cash receipts and expenditures in order to be well prepared to deal with a cash shortage and excess when they occur.  It helps management to assess if the business can be run smoothly with cash resources without liquidity problems.

start by isolating the variable on one side by adding 43w^2 to both sides.   the equation will read:

25w^2+5=0

*subtract 5 from both sides*

25w^2=-5

*divide both sides by 25*

w^2=-1/5

*take the square root of both sides*

w=√(-1/5)

the square root of -1 is i.   the square root of 5 remains √5

the answer is i/√5.
