To expand facilities, Mr. Phelps estimates a need for $2.4 million in additional financing. His investment dealer has laid out three plans for him to consider: 1. Sell $2.4 million of debt at 12 percent. 2. Sell $2.4 million of common stock at $15 per share. 3. Sell $1.20 million of debt at 11 percent and $1.20 million of common stock at $20 per share. Variable costs are expected to stay at 50 percent of sales, while fixed expenses will increase to $2,340,000 per year. Mr. Phelps is not sure how much this expansion will add to sales, but he estimates that sales will rise by $1.20 million per year for the next five years. Mr. Phelps is interested in a thorough analysis of his expansion plans and methods of financing. He would like you to analyze the following: a. The break-even point for operating expenses before and after expansion (in sales dollars). (Enter the answers in dollars not in millions.) Break-even point Before expansion S After expansion $ b.
