    a co faces a constant demand for cash totalling 200,000 pa. it replenishes its current account (which pays no interest) by selling constant amounts of treasury bills which are held as an investment.earning 6% pa. cost per sale of t bills is a foxed $15 per sale

    what is the optimal amount of t bills to be sold?

    the answer says:

    d=200,000
    Co=15
    Ch= 0.06

    i dont understand y Ch =0.06?

    Because 6% is what it is costing them to take money from the investments (they are losing 6% interest) and 0.06 is the same as 6%.
