The firm's marketing staff has told the president that in the coming year there will be a large increase in the demand for overcoats and wool slacks. A sales increase of 10 percent is forecast for the company.

All balance sheet items are expected to maintain the same percent-of-sales relationships as last year,* except for common stock and retained earnings. No change is scheduled in the number of common stock shares outstanding, and retained earnings will change as dictated by the profits and dividend policy of the firm. (Remember, the net profit margin is 8 percent.)

*This includes fixed assets, since the firm is at full capacity.
