 What is the external financing needed? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)  | 
Growth rate in sales=(5976-4200)/4200
=42.2857143%
| Sales | 5976 | 
| Costs(3390*1.422857143) | 4823.49 | 
| Net income | 1152.51 | 
Total assets would be=15300*1.422857143

Total equity would be=4300+Net income
=4300+1152.51=$5452.51
Total assets=Total liabilities+Total equity
