Broussard Skateboard's sales are expected to increase by 15% fr<-rm $8 million in 20 13 to $9.2 million in 2014. Its assets totaled $5 raillion at the end of 2013. Broussard is already at full capacity, so its assets must grou,' at the same rate as projected sales. At the end of 2013, current liabilities were $1.4 million, consisting of $4-50,000 of accounts payable, $-500,000 of notes payable, and $450,000 of accruals. The afler-tax profit margin is forecasted to be 6%, and, the forecasted payout ratio is 407o. Use the AFN equation to forecast Broussard's additional fulds needed for the coming year. Refer to Problem 12-1. What r,vould be tire additional funds needed if the company's year- end 2013 assets had been $7 miliion? Assurne that ali other nurnbers, including sales, are the same as in Probiem 12-1 and that the companlr is operating at fu1l capacify. Why is this AFN different from the one you fbund in Problen.r 12-1? Is the company's "capital intensity" ratio the same or different?
Refer to Problem I2-1. Return to rhe assumption that the company had $5 million in assets at the end of 2013, but now assume that the company pays no dividends. Under these assumptions, what rvould be the additional funds needed for the coming year? Why is this AFN different from the one you found in Problem l2-1?

Common stock amounted to $62-5,000 in 2013, and retained earnings were $395,000. wailace has arranged to sell $19-5,000 of nerv common stock in 2014 to meet some of its financing needs. The remainder of its financing needs will be met by issuing new long-term debt at the end of 2014. (Because the debt is added at the end of the year, there wili be no additiolal interest expense due to the nerv debt.) Its net profit margin on sales is 5yo, and 45o/o of earnings wili be paid out as dividends.
