Cutting Edge is a monthly magazine that has been on the market for 18 months. It currently has a circulation of 1.4 million copies. Negotiations are underway to obtain a bank loan in order to update the magazine's facilities. Cutting Edge is producing close to capacity and expects to grow at an average of 20% per year over the next 3 years.
After reviewing the financial statements of Cutting Edge, Andy Rich, the bank loan officer, had indicated that a loan could be offered to Cutting Edge only if it could increase its current ratio and decrease its debt to equity ratio to a specified level. Jonathan Embry, the marketing manager of Cutting Edge, has devised a plan to meet these requirements. Embry indicates that an advertising campaign can be initiated to immediately increase circulation. The potential customers would be contacted after the purchase of another magazine's mailing list. The campaign would include:

- Carson Company is a large manufacturing firm in Accra that was created 20 years ago by the Carson family. It was initially financed with an equity investment by the Carson family and 10 other individuals. Over time, Carson Company has obtained substantial loans from finance companies and commercial banks. The interest rate on the loans is tied to the market interest rate and is adjusted every six months. Thus, Carson’s cost of obtaining funds is sensitive to interest rate movements. It has a credit line with a bank in case it suddenly needs additional funds for a temporary period. It has purchased Treasury securities that it could sell if it experiences any liquidity problems.Carson Company has assets valued at about 50 million cedis and generates sales of about 100 million cedis per year.

- Upton Computers makes bulk purchases of small computers, stocks them in conveniently located warehouses, ships them to its chain of retail stores, and has a staff to advise customers and help them set up their new computers. Uptons balance sheet as of December 31, 2019, is shown here (millions of dollars): Sales for 2019 were 350 million, and net income for the year was 10.5 million, so the firms profit margin was 3.0%. Upton paid dividends of 4.2 million to common stockholders, so its payout ratio was 40%. Its tax rate was 25%, and it operated at full capacity. Assume that all assets/sales ratios, (spontaneous liabilities)/sales ratios, the profit margin, and the payout ratio remain constant in 2020. a. If sales are projected to increase by 70 million, or 20%, during 2020, use the AFN equation to determine Uptons projected external capital requirements. b. Using the AFN equation, determine Uptons self-supporting growth rate. That is, what is the maximum growth rate the firm can achieve without having to employ nonspontaneous external funds? c. Use the forecasted financial statement method to forecast Uptons balance sheet for December 31, 2020. Assume that all additional external capital is raised as a line of credit at the end of the year. (Because the debt is added at the end of the year, there will be no additional interest expense due to the new debt.) Assume Uptons profit margin and dividend payout ratio will be the same in 2020 as they were in 2019. What is the amount of the line of credit reported on the 2020 forecasted balance sheets? (Hint: You dont need to forecast the income statements because the line of credit is taken out on the last day of the year and you are given the projected sales, profit margin, and dividend payout ratio; these figures allow you to calculate the 2020 addition to retained earnings for the balance sheet without actually constructing a full income statement.)arrow_forwardNow assume that it is several years later. The brothers are concerned about the firm’s current credit terms of net 30, which means that contractors buying building products from the firm are not offered a discount and are supposed to pay the full amount in 30 days. Gross sales are now running $1,000,000 a year, and 80% (by dollar volume) of the firm’s paying customers generally pay the full amount on Day 30; the other 20% pay, on average, on Day 40. Of the firm’s gross sales, 2% ends up as bad-debt losses. The brothers are now considering a change in the firm’s credit policy. The change would entail: (1) changing the credit terms to 2/10, net 20, (2) employing stricter credit standards before granting credit, and (3) enforcing collections with greater vigor than in the past. Thus, cash customers and those paying within 10 days would receive a 2% discount, but all others would have to pay the full amount after only 20 days. The brothers believe the discount would both attract additional customers and encourage some existing customers to purchase more from the firm—after all, the discount amounts to a price reduction. Of course, these customers would take the discount and hence would pay in only 10 days. The net expected result is for sales to increase to $1,100,000; for 60% of the paying customers to take the discount and pay on the 10th day; for 30% to pay the full amount on Day 20; for 10% to pay late on Day 30; and for bad-debt losses to fall from 2% to 1% of gross sales. The firm’s operating cost ratio will remain unchanged at 75%, and its cost of carrying receivables will remain unchanged at 12%. To begin the analysis, describe the four variables that make up a firm’s credit policy and explain how each of them affects sales and collections.arrow_forwardSalem Co. has a year-end of December 31 and they are evaluating the cash flows of some potential investments/projects they are considering for their next fiscal year, starting January 1. Salem Co. rents some of their equipment out to other companies for extra cash flow. They are evaluating three different options to structure their rental agreement in order to earn the largest amount of payments as possible. If Salem receives the rental payments of $15,000 for the next five years on each January 1 instead, at 7% compounded annually, how much is that worth today? $61,502.96 is incorrectarrow_forward
