Broussard Skateboard's
sales are expected to increase by 20% from $7.8 million in 2016 to
$9.36 million in 2017. Its assets totaled $4 million at the end of
2016. Broussard is already at full capacity, so its assets must
grow at the same rate as projected sales. At the end of 2016,
current liabilities were $1.4 million, consisting of $450,000 of
accounts payable, $500,000 of notes payable, and $450,000 of
accruals. The after-tax profit margin is forecasted to be 3%, and
the forecasted payout ratio is 60%. What would be the additional
funds needed? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your
answer to the nearest dollar.
