Beasley Industries' sales are expected to increase from $5 million in 2017 to $6 million in 2018, or by 20%. Its assets totaled $3 million at the end of 2017. Beasley is at full capacity, so its assets must grow in proportion to projected sales. At the end of 2017, current liabilities are $780,000, consisting of $120,000 of accounts payable, $500,000 of notes payable, and $160,000 of accrued liabilities. Its profit margin is forecasted to be 4%, and its dividend payout ratio is 60%. Using the AFN equation, forecast the additional funds Beasley will need for the coming year. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. Do not round intermediate calculations.
