You recently approached your bank about establishing a credit line facility. The terms offered by your bank include a nominal rate of prime + 1.5% (prime is currently 5%) on the amount borrowed, a commitment fee of 25 basis points on the unused portion of the credit line, and a compensating balance of 10% on the amount borrowed.

You decide to establish the line for $75 million. Over the course of a year, you anticipate the average amount borrowed to be $55 million. Your firm keeps no balances at the bank paying fees for all cash management services.
