Broussard Skateboard's sales are expected to increase by 20%
from $7.6 million in 2016 to $9.12 million in 2017. Its assets
totaled $5 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 7%, and the forecasted payout ratio is 65%. What
would be the additional funds needed? Do not round intermediate
calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.
