SALES INCREASE Pierce Furnishings generated $2 million in sales during 2015, and its year-end total
assets were $1.5 million. Also, at year-end 2015, current liabilities were $500,000, consisting of
$200,000 of notes payable, and $200,000 of account payable, and $100,000 of accrued liabilities.
Looking ahead to 2016, the company estimates that its assets must increase by $0.75 for every $1.00
increase in sales. Pierce’s profit magin 5%, and its retention ratio is 40%. How large of a sales increase
can the company achieve without having to raise funds externally?
Given:
• Current liabilities: $500,000 ($200,000 notes payable; $200,000 accounts payable; $100,000
accrued liabilities)
• 2016 its assets must increase by $0.75 for every $1.00 increase in sales
• Profit margin: 5%

(AFN/additional fund needed?)
Formula:
Projected Spontaneous Increase in
Increase in - increase in - retained
Additional Fund Needed (AFN) =
assets liabilities earnings
Where:
Answer:

REGRESSION AND INVENTORIES Charlie’s Cycles Inc. has $110 million in sales. The company expects
that its sales will increase 5% this year. Charlie’s CFO uses a simple linear regression to forecast the
company’sinventory level for a given level of projected sales. On the basis of recent history, the
estimated relationship between inventories and sales (in millions of dollars) is as follows:
Given the estimated sales forecast and the estimated relationship between inventories and sales, what
are your forecasts of the company’s year-end inventory level and its inventory turnover ratio?
To compute : Sales forecast year ended inventory and inventory turnover ratio.
Sales Forecast : The management generally takes 5 years financial records and then studies it and
decided the amount of turnover for the current and up coming years. This predicted turnover is known
as the sales forecast.
Sales : $110.000.000
Increase in Sales : 5%

EXCESS CAPACITY Edney Manufacturing has $2 billion in sales and $0,6 billion in fixed assets. Currently
the company’s fixed assets are operating at 80% of capacity.
a) What level of sales could edney have obtained if it had been operating at full capacity?
c) If Edney’s sales increase 30%, how large of an increase in fixed assets will the company need to meet
its target fixed assets / sales ratio?
Given :
• FA : $0,6 billion
Question :
a) What level of sales could Edney have obtained if it had been operating at full capacity?
c) If Edney’s sales increase 30%, how large of an increase in fixed assets will the company need to meet
its target fixed assets / sales ratio?
Answer :
a) Sales = 2.000.000.000
FA = 600.000.000
Full capacity sales = Actual sales / (FA yang mengoperasikan 80% dari kapasitas)
= 2.000.000.000 / 0,80
= 2.500.000.000
= 0,24
= 24%
c) Berapa kenaikan fixed assets yang dibutuhkan perusahaan untuk mencapai target fixed assets /
sales rationya?
= 24.000.000
Jadi ketika penjualannya naik hingga 2.600.000.000, Edney harus meningkatkan FA sebesar 24.000.000

Suppose that in 2016, sales increase by 15% over 2015 sales. The firm currently has 100,000 shares
outstanding. It expects to maintain its 2015 dividend payout ratio and believes that its assets should grow
at the same rate as sales. The firm has no excess capacity. However, the firm would like to reduce its
Operating costs/Sales ratio to 87.5% and increase its total debt-to-assets ratio to 30%. (It believes that its
current debt ratio is too low relative to the industry average.) The firm will raise 30% of 2016 forecasted
total debt as notes payable, and it will issue long-term bonds for the remainder. The firm forecasts that its
before-tax cost of debt (which includes both short-term and long-term debt) is 12.5%. Assume that any
common stock issuances or repurchases can be made at the firm's current stock price of $45.
a. Construct the forecasted financial statements assuming that these changes are made. What are the firm's
forecasted notes payable and long-term debt balances? What is the forecasted addition to retained
earnings?
b. If the profit margin remains at 5% and the dividend payout ratio remains at 60%, at what growth rate in
sales will the additional financing requirements be exactly zero? In otherwords, what is the firm's
sustainable growth rate? (Hint: Set AFN equal to zero and solve for g.)
Answer :
A. Working Notes I
Forcasted notes payable for 2016 = (Notes payable for 2015 + Increment in notes payable)
Substitute $56.000 for notes payable for 2015 and 30% for increment in notes payable.
Substitute $ 180.000 for net income and $ 108.000 for dividend paid.
Substitute $ 180.000 for net income and $ 108.000 for dividend paid.
B. Working Notes II
1. Cash (2016) = Cash in 2015 x (1 + Growth)
= 180.000 x (1 + 0.1)
= 180.000 x 1.1
= $ 198.000
$ 0 = 0.58(ΔSales) - $72.000
$ 72.000 = 0.58(ΔSales)
ΔSales = $ 124.138
ΔSales $ 124.138
Growth rate in sales = = = 3.45%
$ 3.600 .000 $ 3.600 .000
