Expert Solution

Operating assets are cash, accounts receivable, inventories and net fixed assets.

First we calculate ratio of each operating assets of last year to last year's sales.

Cash = (cash/sales) = $150/$1,000 = 0.15

Accounts receivable = $300/$1,000 = 0.3

Inventories = $300/$1,000 = 0.3

Net fixed assets = $600/$1,000 = 0.60

Next year's sales = current sales*(1+growth rate) = $1,000*1.12 = $1,120

Project cash next year = project sales*cash to sales ratio = $1,120*0.15 = $168

Project accounts receivable = $1,120*0.3 = $336

Projected inventories = $1,120*0.3 = $336

Projected Net fixed assets = $1,120*0.60 = $672

projected total operating assets = $168 + $336 + $336 + $672 = $1,512
