In developing its forecast for the upcoming year, the company has assembled the following information:

• Sales are expected to increase 8 % this upcoming year.
• Operating costs are expected to remain at 90% of sales.
• Cash and marketable securities are expected to remain at 1% of sales
• Accounts receivable are expected to remain at 8% of sales

• Spontaneous liabilities (accounts payable and accruals) are expected to increase at the same rate as sales.
• The company will continue to pay a zero dividend, and its tax rate will remain at 40%.
• The company anticipates that any additional funds needed will be raised in the following manner: 25% notes payable, 25% long-term debt, and 50% common stock.

2. Based upon this forecast, describe changes from the prior year that should expect in its return on equity, inventory turnover ratio and profit margin.
