Henderson Office Supply is considering a more liberal credit policy to increase sales but expects that $5$ percent of the new accounts will be uncollectible. Collection costs are $6$ percent of new sales, production and selling costs are $78$ percent, and accounts receivable turnover is four times. Assume income taxes of $30$ percent and an increase in sales of $$85,000.$ No other asset buildup will be required to service the new accounts.

What additional investment in accounts receivable is needed to support this sales expansion?

What would be Henderson$$s incremental aftertax return on investment?

Note: Input your answer as a percent rounded to $2$ decimal places.
