That’s what my math says using your numbers. Here’s how I ran it for the OP so you can put in your own numbers.
$4.50 corn x 7% interest = $0.315 yearly interest
$0.315 yearly interest / 12 months= $0.02625 per month or 2.625 cents per month
2.625 cents x 5 months=13.125 cents interest cost. Value not included is you take out any risk of corn going bad for 5 months and if you have more available time to do it now spreads out the work load
