• Variable cost will increase by 5% per annum
• Selling price will increase by 10% per annum
• Marketing expense will be 5% of sales revenue per year
• An initial working capital investment of GH2000 will be made. Subsequently, net working capital at the end of each year will be equal to 10 percent of sales for that year.
