Problem 9-8 Financing Deficit Stevens Textile's 2015 financial statements are shown below: Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015 (Thousands of Dollars) Cash $1,080 Accounts

Problem 9-8 Financing Deficit

Stevens Textile's 2015 financial statements are shown below:

Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015 (Thousands of Dollars)

Cash	$1,080	Accounts payable	$4,320
Receivables	6,480	Accruals	2,880
Inventories	9,000	Line of credit	0
Total current assets	$16,560	Notes payable	2,100
Net fixed assets	12,600	Total current liabilities	$9,300
		Mortgage bonds	3,500
		Common stock	3,500
		Retained earnings	12,860
Total assets	$29,160	Total liabilities and equity	$29,160

Income Statement for December 31, 2015 (Thousands of Dollars)

Sales	$36,000
Operating costs	32,440
Earnings before interest and taxes	$3,560
Interest	460
Pre-tax earnings	$3,100
Taxes (40%)	1,240
Net income	$1,860
Dividends (45%)	$837
Addition to retained earnings	$1,023

Suppose 2016 sales are projected to increase by 10% over 2015 sales. Use the forecasted financial statement method to forecast a balance sheet and income statement for December 31, 2016. The interest rate on all debt is 9%, and cash earns no interest income. Assume that all additional debt in the form of a line of credit is added at the end of the year, which means that you should base the forecasted interest expense on the balance of debt at the beginning of the year. Use the forecasted income statement to determine the addition to retained earnings. Assume that the company was operating at full capacity in 2015, that it cannot sell off any of its fixed assets, and that any required financing will be borrowed as notes payable. Also, assume that assets, spontaneous liabilities, and operating costs are expected to increase by the same percentage as sales. Determine the additional funds needed. Round your answers to the nearest whole number. Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in thousands of dollars.

AFN $
What is the resulting total forecasted amount of the line of credit? Round your answers to the nearest whole number. Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in thousands of dollars.Notes payable (including line of credit) $
In your answers to Parts a and b, you should not have charged any interest on the additional debt added during 2016 because it was assumed that the new debt was added at the end of the year. But now suppose that the new debt is added throughout the year. Don't do any calculations, but how would this change the answers to parts a and b?If debt is added throughout the year rather than only at the end of the year, interest expense will be-Select-higherlowerItem 4than in the projections of part a. This would cause net income to be-Select-higherlowerItem 5, the addition to retained earnings to be-Select-higherlowerItem 6, and the AFN to be-Select-higherlowerItem 7. Thus, you would have to-Select-add insubtract fromItem 8new debt.
