Solutions

Expert Solution

Next year's projected sales = $35,340

Current year sales = $31,000

% of increase in sales next year = (Next year sales - Current year sales / Current year sales

% of increase in sales next year = ($35,340 - $31,000) / $31,000

% of increase in sales next year = 0.14 or 14%

Projected income statement for next year :

Sales	$35,340
Less : Cost ($18,400 + 14%)	$20,976
Taxable income	$14,364
Tax @ 22% ($14,364 * 22%)	$3,160.08
Net income	$11,203.92
Less : Dividend (Note 1)	$4,218.28
Transfer to reserve	$6,985.64

Note 1 : Calculation of dividend for next year

Current year dividend payout ratio is to be maintained for next year projection also.

Dividend payout ratio = Current year dividend / Net income

Dividend payout ratio = $3,700 / $9,828

Dividend payout ratio = 0.3765 or 37.65%

Now,

Next year projected dividend = Projected Net income * Dividend payout ratio

Next year projected dividend = $11,203.92 * 37.65%

Next year projected dividend = $4,218.28

Projected Balance Sheet

Assets	Amount	Liabilities & equity	Amount
Assets ($73,200 + 14%)	$83,448	Debt (no change)	$36,700
		Equity	$36,500
		Reserves (transfer from income statement)	$6,985.64
Total	$83,448		$80,185.64

External financing needed = Total projected assets - Total projected liabilities & equity

External financing needed = $83,448 - $80,185.64

External financing needed = $3,262.36

Note : In projected balancesheet, balance income after dividend payment transferred to reserve separately on balancesheet. In current year, it is assumed that balance income after dividend is considered in equity in balancesheet.
