Broussard Skateboard's sales are expected to increase by 20%
from $7.4 million in 2018 to $8.88 million in 2019. Its assets
totaled $5 million at the end of 2018.
Broussard is already at full capacity, so its assets must grow at
the same rate as projected sales. At the end of 2018, current
liabilities were $1.4 million, consisting of $450,000 of accounts
payable, $500,000 of notes payable, and $450,000 of accruals. The
after-tax profit margin is forecasted to be 3%, and the forecasted
payout ratio is 40%. Use the AFN equation to forecast Broussard's
additional funds needed for the coming year. Enter your answer in
dollars. For example, an answer of $1.2 million should be entered
as $1,200,000. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your
answer to the nearest dollar.
Last year
Total Sales = 7.4 mnn
Total Assets = 5 mn
Total Liabilites = 1400,000 - Notes Payable = 900,000
New This year
increase required = 20%
Retained Earnings = 60%
Profit margin = 3%
Increase in Assets required = 5,000,000 * 20% = 1,000,000
Incrase in liabilities = 900,000 * 20% = 180,000
Net Income = Sales * Profit Margin
= 8,880,000 * 0.03
= 266,400
Retained Earnings = 266400 * 60% = 159840
AFN = Increase in Assets - Increase in Liability - Retained Earnings
= 1000,000 - 180,000 - 159840
= 660,160
