QUESTION 5 10 points Save Answer Two sisters, Izzy and Libby have a very successful landscaping business. Both are recent business school graduates, and while they tend to agree on most major business decisions, they are currently having a disagreement on how they should finance their business.

Libby disagrees, and believes rates will remain at current levels. Libby would like to take advantage of the significantly lower short term rates and fund as much as possible on a short term basis.
