Current sales = $ 18,000,000
Expected growth rate this year =7%
Expected sales in this year, S = 18,000,000 x (1 + 7%) = $19,260,000
Net income = Profit margin x S = 27% x 19,260,000 = $ 5,200,200
Addition to retained earnings = Retention ratio x Net income =
87% x 5,200,200 = $ 4,524,174

Total Liabilities and Equity before AFN[+] Additional funding needed |
Hence, AFN = - 3,992,174
This means there is a surplus, hence there will be no requirement of funds.
Part (b)
Since there is no requirement of external funds, hence there is no need for fresh equity issuance.
