Major Manuscripts, Inc., is currently operating at 70 percent of capacity. All costs and net working capital vary directly with sales. The tax rate, the profit margin, and the dividend payout ratio will remain constant. How much additional debt is required if no new equity is raised and sales are projected to increase by 10 percent

Respuesta :

The attached data is required to answer the question

Answer:

$535

Explanation:

In this scenario we need to calculate the additional debt required by Major Manuscript

We expect an increase of 10% of sales

Therefore

Total assets projected = 9,420 * 1.10 = $10,362

Accounts payable projected = 2,200 * 1.10 = $2,420

Current long term debt = $260

Current common stock = $2,400

Retained earnings projected = 4,560 +{(360 - 190) * 1.10} = $4,747

Additional debt required = 10,362 - 2,420 - 260 - 2,400 - 4,747

Additional debt required = $535
