Boles Corporation needs to raise $500,000 for one year to supply capital to a new store. Boles buys from its suppliers on terms of 3/10, net 90, and it currently pays on Day 10 and takes discount; but it could forgo discount, pay on Day 90, and get the needed $500,000 in the form costly trade credit.
