Answer 2

Answer:

Comprehensive Problem 1.

Mansfield Corporation (external funds requirement) (LO4) Mansfield Corporation had 2010 sales of $100 million. The balance sheet items that vary directly with sales and the profit margin are as follows:

Percent

Cash

5%

Accounts receivable

15

Inventory

20

Net fixed assets

40

Accounts payable

15

Accruals

10

Profit margin after taxes

10%

The dividend payout rate is 50 percent of earnings, and the balance in retained earnings at the end of 2010 was $33 million. Notes payable are currently $7 million. Long-term bonds and common stock are constant at $5 million and $10 million, respectively.

a. How much additional external capital will be required for next year if sales increase 15 percent? (Assume that the company is already operating at full capacity.)

b. What will happen to external fund requirements if Mansfield Corporation reduces the payout ratio, grows at a slower rate, or suffers a decline in its profit margin? Discuss each of these separately.

c. Prepare a pro forma balance sheet for 2011 assuming that any external funds being acquired will be in the form of notes payable. Disregard the information in part b in answering this question (that is, use the original information and part a in constructing your pro forma balance sheet).
