Wow, a whole 0.27% extra on the commercial paper? Sign me up! But seriously, the portfolio manager better do their homework on these securities. Don't want to end up with a portfolio that's 'commercial-ly challenged,' am I right? Haha!

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm going to have to go with option C, 0.35%. Sure, the commercial paper has a higher return, but you know what they say - 'higher risk, higher reward.' Gotta weigh that carefully, my friend.

I'm sticking with option C. It's a balance between risk and reward that I'm comfortable with.

Okay, let's see... 0.45% seems like the correct answer here. Gotta love those juicy commercial paper returns! Though I have to say, the portfolio manager better have a good handle on the risk profile of these securities. Wouldn't want any unexpected surprises, am I right?

I think it's 0.45% too. Commercial paper can be a good choice for higher returns.

Ah, a classic dilemma! Treasury bills or commercial paper? Personally, I'd go for the commercial paper. It's like choosing between a boring old savings account or a slightly riskier but potentially more rewarding investment. Live a little, you know?
