Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- Suppose the company has just the opposite news and now expects unit sales for August, September, and October to be double (200%) the original estimates. What effect will this have on the company’s net income and borrowing? Explain your findings.Strickler Technology is considering changes in its working capital policies to improve its cash flow cycle. Stricklers sales last year were 3,250,000 (all on credit), and its net profit margin was 7%. Its inventory turnover was 6.0 times during the year, and its DSO was 41 days. Its annual cost of goods sold was 1,800,000. The firm had fixed assets totaling 535,000. Stricklers payables deferral period is 45 days. a. Calculate Stricklers cash conversion cycle. b. Assuming Strickler holds negligible amounts of cash and marketable securities, calculate its total assets turnover and ROA. c. Suppose Stricklers managers believe the annual inventory turnover can be raised to 9 times without affecting sale or profit margins. What would Stricklers cash conversion cycle, total assets turnover, and ROA have been if the inventory turnover had been 9 for the year?Looking at Morningstars Profitability ratios, what has happened to Hewlett Packards profit margin (net margin %) over the past 10 years? What has happened to its return on assets (ROA) and return on equity (ROE) over the past 10 years?
- Suppose the company has to revise its estimates because of a downturn in the economy. Unit sales for August, September, and October will be half (50%) of the original estimates. Revise the estimates in cells 1311 through 1313. After this is done, check your forecasted balance sheet. It should still balance! What effect will this new state of affairs have on net income and borrowing? Explain why these items changed.A firm’s balance sheets for the last two years are as follows (refer to image): Sales in 20X1 were $250,000. Sales in 20X2 were $250,000. a. Based solely on the current ratio and the quick ratio, has the firm’s liquidity position deteriorated or improved? b. Without doing a calculation, has days sales outstanding (receivables turnover) improved? How do you know? c. Without doing a calculation, has inventory turnover deteriorated? How do you know? d. If the firm earned $5,000 during 2012, what proportion of those earningswere distributed?A company with current-year sales of $4,500,000 and cost of goods sold of $3,248,000 reduced its inventory days from 119 days in the prior year to 115 days for the current year. Its receivable days slowed from 40 days to 43 days. What was the cash flow effect of these swing-factor efficiency changes?
- A company has a required return of 12%, a profit margin of 4%, a D/E ratio of 0.5 and total asset turnover of 2. Annual dividends last year were $2.00. A) The company has a dividend payout ratio of 20%; calculate the price and forward P/E ratio. B) If the company would have changed its dividend payout ratio to 60%, what would happen to the price and forward P/E ratio? C) What variables are critical to determine if they should increase or decrease their dividend payout ratio? (Hint be specific what variables do you need to know.)Use the information provided below to answer the question. The ratios are for last year, for ABC Inc and the average of its industry as follows ABC Inc Industry Average Inventory $150,000 $100,000 Accounts Receivable 24,000 24,000 Other Assets 76,000 76,000 Total Assets $250,000 $200,000 Profit Margin 1.8% 2% Equity $ 125,000 $ 125,000 Sales $ 1,100,000 $ 1,000,000 What is ABC’s Return on Equity (ROE)?Last year, Thomas Co. had a profit margin of 10%, total assets turnover of 0.5, and a debt ratio of 20% (the company finances its assets with debt and common equity). This year, the company wats to double ROE. The CFO expects the total assets turnover will remain at 0.5, while the profit margin will increase enough to double ROE. Assume that the profit margin is increased to 15%, what debt ratio will the company need in order to double its ROE?
- The Manning Company has financial statements as shown next, which are representative of the company’s historical average. The firm is expecting a 30 percent increase in sales next year, and management is concerned about the company’s need for external funds. The increase in sales is expected to be carried out without any expansion of fixed assets, but rather through more efficient asset utilization in the existing store. Among liabilities, only current liabilities vary directly with sales. Income Statement Sales $ 240,000 Expenses 181,200 Earnings before interest and taxes $ 58,800 Interest 7,400 Earnings before taxes $ 51,400 Taxes 15,400 Earnings after taxes $ 36,000 Dividends $ 12,600 Balance Sheet Assets Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity Cash $ 6,000 Accounts payable $ 23,300 Accounts receivable 57,000 Accrued wages 1,800 Inventory 81,000 Accrued taxes 3,700 Current assets $ 144,000 Current liabilities $ 28,800 Fixed…The most recent financial statements for a firm are shown here: Income Statement Balance Sheet Sales $ 39,850 Assets $ 135,000 Debt $ 37,000 Costs 26,100 Equity 98,000 Taxable income $ 13,750 Total $ 135,000 Total $ 135,000 Taxes (20%) 2,750 Net income $ 11,000 Assets and costs are proportional to sales; debt and equity are not. A dividend of $6,600 was paid, and the company wishes to maintain a constant payout ratio. Next year’s sales are projected to be $43,835. What is the external financing needed?
