If the company's compound sales growth slowed to half of its present rate, what would be the likely effect upon external financing needs? What is the desired effect upon inventory if such a change occurs? 8. For a company such as Triple A, comment on the importance of inventory control and accounts receivable collection policy. 9. Why is there a difference between the company's sales growth and its profit growth? Specifically, how is the difference likely to influence borrowing needs? To what is the difference due?

Retirement planning questions Questions 1. How much in annual income will the Jordans require at retirement in three years when inflation averages 4 percent per year? 2. Assume that John will retire July 31, 1998. The Jordans will require the annual income computed in question 2 over their life expectancy. Assume the income stream will remain constant over years (i.e., there will be no inflation.) The payments will be received at the beginning of each year. 3. How much capital would the Jordans require at John's retirement to generate their desired income stream? Assume an 8 percent discount rate for the whole retirement period. 4. The Jordans are worried about the 8% rate of return on their investment(s) mya not be sustainable over a long period. They wish to be prepared. Assume 8% interest rate for the first 8 years of retirement and 6% of the remaining period. How much capital do the Jordans require? 5. What will the value of the Jordans' investment portfolio at ABC Securities grow to on July 31, 1998, if the expected rate of return is 8 percent? 6. What will be the value of the Individual Retirement Accounts on July 31, 1998, if they grow 8 percent annually 7. What will the 401(k) grow to on July 31, 1998, assuming an 8 percent annual return? Remember to take into account the annual additions made at the end of each year. 8. What is the lump-sum equivalent of the social security benefits the Jordans will receive? Ignore cost-of-living increases. Assume benefits will be paid annually; the first payment will occur on August 1, 1998. It is expected that 20 annual payments will be made. (Compute the present value using an 8 percent discount rate.) 9. According to your calculations for questions 4 to 8, will the Jordans be able to achieve their retirement income objective? 10. The Jordans' broker, I.M. Slick, has recommended that they sell the zero-coupon bonds in their IRAs and invest the proceeds in a real estate limited partnership. This venture offers the opportunity for a 15 percent annual return. But, it also carries substantial risk. I.M. Slick will receive a commission of 8 percent of the monies invested in the partnership. Do you think this is an appropriate investment recommendation for Mr. Slick to make? Why or why not? Should the Jordans sell the bonds and invest in the partnership? Why or why not
