I. Suppose that in 2017, sales increase by 20% over 2016 sales. The firm currently has 100,000 shares outstanding. It expects to maintain its 2015 dividend payout ratio and believes that its assets should grow at the same rate as sales. The firm has no excess capacity. However, the firm would like to reduce its Operating costs/Sales ratio to 85% and increase its total liabilities-to-assets ratio to 40%. (It believes its liabilities-to-assets ratio currently is too low relative to the industry average.) The firm will raise 40% of the 2016 forecasted interest-bearing debt as notes payable, and it will issue long-term bonds for the remainder. The firm forecasts that its before-tax cost of debt (which includes both short term and long-term debt) is 15%. Assume that any common stock issuances or repurchases can be made at the firm's current stock price of $45. ADDITIONAL FUNDS NEEDED shown here.
