Answer:

The correct answer is A) True

Explanation:

Seasonal needs are short-term in nature. To service them using short-term funds would prove more expensive over the long run.

Long-term finance in most cases have the characteristics of being relatively cheaper than short-term finance.

Chief among the sources of short-term finance are:

  • trade credits,
  • Commercial Bank overdrafts
  • Commercial paper, promissory note, and
  • loans that are secured

Short-term finances are usually less than a year. Whilst long-term finances generally span over one year.

Examples of long term finances are:

  • Equity Capital
  • government debt
  • Bonds
  • Mortgages etc

Interest payable on long term debts are usually single-digit whilst those on short term loans are usually double-digit.

As indicated in the information provided, companies that keep extra "permanent" funds preserve its value by placing it in short term investments

Cheers!
