Explanation / Answer

(‘a) Calculation of External Funds Needed in Next Year

Additional Funds Needed = Increase in Assets – Increase in Liabilities- Increase in retained earnings

Increase in Assets = Increase ion Current Assets + Increase in Fixed Assets

Increase in Assets = (Existing Current Assets x Sales Growth ) + ( Existing Fixed Assets x Sales Growth)

Increase in Assets = (7310,000 x 0.2 ) + (19780,000 x 0.2 ) = 5418,000

Increase in Liabilities = Existing Short Term Liability x Sales Growth

Increase in Liability = 5985,000 x 0.2 = 1197,000

Increase in Retained Earnings = Proposed Sales x Profit Margin x Retention Ratio

Increase in Retained Earnings= 37800,000 x 0.1003 x 0.6 = 2273, 778

External Finance Needed = 1947,222
