Answer:

 

Explanation:

From the given information;

Suppose the interest rate is constant. then at 10% three-year loan;

The total interest at 10% will be:

= $300000 × 10% × 3years

= $90000

Aso, 8% one year loan with rollover will be total interest at 8%:

= $300000 × 8% × 3 years

= $72000

Savings in interest of Sauer Food Company = $(90000 - 72000)

= $18000

Suppose short-term rates change, then for the first year, we will have:

= 300000 × 0.1

=  $30000

second year will be = 300000 × 0.13

=$39000

third year will be= 300000 × 0.18

=$54000

As such, the total rate of the variable loan = $30000 + $39000 + $54000

= $123000

However, the fixed rate at 10% three year loan is equal to = $90000

As such, the additional total interest cost  = $(123000 - 90000)

= $33000
