    Cash will Letestu need to borrow in January in order to meet the minimum balance requirement is $7,000

    Explanation:

    Cash inflows in January = Cash collected in January = $100,000

    Cash outflows in January = Cash paid for inventory purchases + Cash paid for selling and administrative expenses + Dividend payment = $45,000 + $62,000 + $5,000 = $112,000

    Without borrowing, Cash balance on January 31, 2011 = $10,000 + $100,000 - $112,000 = - $2,000

    Letestu maintains a minimum cash balance of $5,000

    Cash will Letestu need to borrow in January = $5,000 + $2,000 = $7,000
