- Effective Cost of Short-Term Credit Yonge Corporation must arrange financing for its working capital requirements for the coming year. Yonge can: (a) borrow from its bank on a simple interest basis (interest payable at the end of the loan) for 1 year at a 12% nominal rate; (b) borrow on a 3-month, but renewable on rate with 12 end-of-month payments; or (d) obtain the needed funds by no longer taking discounts and thus increasing its accounts payable. Yonge buys on terms of 1/15, net 60. What is the effective annual cost (not the nominal cost) of the least expensive type of credit, assuming 360 days per year?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?Relaxing Collection Efforts The Boyd Corporation has annual credit sales of 1.6 million. Current expenses for the collection department are 35,000, bad-debt losses are 1.5%, and the days sales outstanding is 30 days. The firm is considering easing its collection efforts such that collection expenses will be reduced to 22,000 per year. The change is expected to increase bad-debt losses to 2.5% and to increase the days sales outstanding to 45 days. In addition, sales are expected to increase to 1,625,000 per year. Should the firm relax collection efforts if the opportunity cost of funds is 16%, the variable cost ratio is 75%, and taxes are 40%?
