Answers to Concepts Review and Critical Thinking Questions
1.
(LO1) The reason is that, ultimately, sales are the driving force behind a business. A firms assets, employees,
and, in fact, just about every aspect of its operations and financing exist to directly or indirectly support sales.
Put differently, a firms future need for things like capital assets, employees, inventory, and financing are
determined by its future sales level.
2.
(LO1) Its probably more important for a capital intensive company because such companies must make large
cash outlays long in advance of actual needs. For example, a new manufacturing facility might have to be
started years before the planned output is needed.
3.
(LO2) The internal growth rate is greater than 15%, because at a 15% growth rate the negative EFN indicates
that there is excess internal financing. If the internal growth rate is greater than 15%, then the sustainable
growth rate is certainly greater than 15%, because there is additional debt financing used in that case (assuming
the firm is not 100% equity-financed). As the retention ratio is increased, the firm has more internal sources of
funding, so the EFN will decline. Conversely, as the retention ratio is decreased, the EFN will rise. If the firm
pays out all its earnings in the form of dividends, then the firm has no internal sources of funding (ignoring the
effects of accounts payable); the internal growth rate is zero in this case and the EFN will rise to the change in
total assets.
4.
(LO2, 3) The sustainable growth rate is greater than 20%, because at a 20% growth rate the negative EFN
indicates that there is excess financing still available. If the firm is 100% equity financed, then the sustainable
and internal growth rates are equal and the internal growth rate would be greater than 20%. However, when the
firm has some debt, the internal growth rate is always less than the sustainable growth rate, so it is ambiguous
whether the internal growth rate would be greater than or less than 20%. If the retention ratio is increased, the
firm will have more internal funding sources available, and it will have to take on more debt to keep the
debt/equity ratio constant, so the EFN will decline. Conversely, if the retention ratio is decreased, the EFN will
rise. If the retention rate is zero, both the internal and sustainable growth rates are zero, and the EFN will rise to
the change in total assets.
5.
(LO6) Presumably not, but, of course, if the product had been much less popular, then a similar fate would have
awaited due to lack of sales.
6.
(LO6) Since customers did not pay until shipment, receivables rose. The firms NWC, but not its cash,
increased. At the same time, costs were rising faster than cash revenues, so operating cash flow declined. The
firms capital spending was also rising. Thus, all three components of cash flow from assets were negatively
impacted.
7.
(LO6) Apparently not! In hindsight, the firm may have underestimated costs and also underestimated the extra
demand from the lower price.
8.
(LO6) Financing possibly could have been arranged if the company had taken quick enough action. Sometimes
it becomes apparent that help is needed only when it is too late, again emphasizing the need for planning.
9.
(LO6) All three were important, but the lack of cash or, more generally, financial resources ultimately spelled
doom. An inadequate cash resource is usually cited as the most common cause of small business failure.
10. (LO6) Demanding cash up front, increasing prices, subcontracting production, and improving financial
resources via new owners or new sources of credit are some of the options. When orders exceed capacity, price
increases may be especially beneficial.

Newfixedassets=$478,800440,000
Newfixedassets=$38,800
18. (LO3) We first need to determine full capacity sales. To do so we divide the current sales by the capacity the
company is currently using:
Full capacity sales = $350,000 / .60
Full capacity sales = $583,333.33
The maximum sales growth is the full capacity sales divided by the current sales, so:
Maximum sales growth = ($583,333.33 / 350,000) 1
Maximum sales growth = .6667 or 66.67%
19. (LO4) At full fixed asset capacity: sales = $200,000/0.94 = $212,765.96
This means that sales can grow from $200,000 to $212,765.96 before new fixed assets are needed.
Therefore the most that sales can grow before new fixed assets are needed =
($212,765.96/200,000) 1 = 0.0638 or 6.38%
20. (LO4) We have all the variables to calculate ROE using the DuPont identity except the profit margin. If we
find ROE, we can solve the DuPont identity for profit margin. We can calculate ROE from the sustainable
growth rate equation. For this equation we need the retention ratio, so:
R = 1 .30
R = .70
Using the sustainable growth rate equation and solving for ROE, we get:
Sustainable growth rate = (ROE R) / [1 (ROE R)]
.12 = [ROE(.70)] / [1 ROE(.70)]
ROE = .1531 or 15.31%
Now we can use the DuPont identity to find the profit margin as:
ROE = PM(TAT)(EM)
.1531 = PM(1 / 0.75)(1 + 1.20)
PM = (.1531) / [(1 / 0.75)(2.20)]
PM = .0522 or 5.22%
21. (LO4) We have all the variables to calculate ROE using the DuPont identity except the equity multiplier.
Remember that the equity multiplier is one plus the debt-equity ratio. If we find ROE, we can solve the DuPont
identity for equity multiplier, then the debt-equity ratio. We can calculate ROE from the sustainable growth
rate equation. For this equation we need the retention ratio, so:
R = 1 .30
R = .70
Using the sustainable growth rate equation and solving for ROE, we get:
.115 = [ROE(.70)] / [1 ROE(.70)]
ROE = .1473 or 14.73%
Now we can use the DuPont identity to find the equity multiplier as:
ROE = PM(TAT)(EM)
.1474 = (.062)(1 / .6)EM
EM = (.1474)(.6) / .062
EM = 1.426
So, the D/E ratio is:
D/E = EM 1
D/E = 1.4267 1
D/E = 0.426
22. (LO4) We are given the profit margin. Remember that:
ROA = PM(TAT)
We can calculate the ROA from the internal growth rate formula, and then use the ROA in this equation to find
the total asset turnover. The retention ratio is:
R = 1 .25
R = .75
Using the internal growth rate equation to find the ROA, we get:
Internal growth rate = (ROA R) / [1 (ROA R)]
.07 = [ROA(.75)] / [1 ROA(.75)]
ROA = .0872 or 8.72%
Plugging ROA and PM into the equation we began with and solving for TAT, we get:
ROA = (PM)(TAT)
.0872 = .05(TAT)
TAT = .0872 / .05
TAT = 1.74 times
23. (LO5) We should begin by calculating the D/E ratio. We calculate the D/E ratio as follows:
Total debt ratio = .65 = TD / TA
Inverting both sides we get:
1 / .65 = TA / TD
Next, we need to recognize that
TA / TD = 1 + TE / TD
Substituting this into the previous equation, we get:
1 / .65 = 1 + TE /TD
Subtract 1 (one) from both sides and inverting again, we get:
D/E = 1 / [(1 / .65) 1]
D/E = 1.86
With the D/E ratio, we can calculate the EM and solve for ROE using the DuPont identity:
ROE = (PM)(TAT)(EM)
ROE = (.048)(1.25)(1 + 1.86)
ROE = .1714 or 17.14%
Now we can calculate the retention ratio as:
R = 1 .30
R = .70
Finally, putting all the numbers we have calculated into the sustainable growth rate equation, we get:
Sustainable growth rate = [.1714(.70)] / [1 .1714(.70)]
Sustainable growth rate = .1363 or 13.63%
24. (LO2, 5) To calculate the sustainable growth rate, we first must calculate the retention ratio and ROE. The
retention ratio is:
R = 1 $9,300 / $17,500
R = .4686
And the ROE is:
ROE = $17,500 / $58,000
ROE = .3017 or 30.17%
So, the sustainable growth rate is:
If the company grows at the sustainable growth rate, the new level of total assets is:
Current TA = $86,000 + 58,000 = $144,000
New TA = 1.1647($144,000) = $167,716.80
To find the new level of debt in the companys balance sheet, we take the percentage of debt in the capital
structure times the new level of total assets. The additional borrowing will be the new level of debt minus the
current level of debt. So:
New TD = [D / (D + E)](TA)
New TD = [$86,000 / ($86,000 + 58,000)]($167,716.80)
New TD = $100,164.20
And the additional borrowing will be:
Additional borrowing = $100,164.20 86,000
Additional borrowing = $14,164.20
The growth rate that can be supported with no outside financing is the internal growth rate. To calculate the
internal growth rate, we first need the ROA, which is:
ROA = $17,500 / $144,000
ROA = .1215 or 12.15%
This means the internal growth rate is:
Internal growth rate = [.1215(.4686)] / [1 .1215(.4686)]
Internal growth rate = .06038 or 6.038%
25. (LO5) Since the company issued no new equity, shareholders equity increased by retained earnings. Retained
earnings for the year were:
Retained earnings = NI Dividends
Retained earnings = $19,000 2,500
Retained earnings = $16,500
So, the equity at the end of the year was:
Ending equity = $135,000 + 16,500
Ending equity = $151,500
The ROE based on the end of period equity is:
ROE = $19,000 / $151,500
ROE = 12.54%
The retention ratio is:
Retention ratio = Addition to retained earnings/NI
Retention ratio = $16,500 / $19,000
Retention ratio = .8684 or 86.84%
Using the equation presented in the text for the sustainable growth rate, we get:

The ROE based on the beginning of period equity is
ROE = $19,000 / $135,000
ROE = .1407 or 14.07%
Using the shortened equation for the sustainable growth rate and the beginning of period ROE, we get:
Sustainable growth rate = ROE R
Sustainable growth rate = .1407 .8684
Using the shortened equation for the sustainable growth rate and the end of period ROE, we get:
Sustainable growth rate = ROE R
Sustainable growth rate = .1254 .8684
Using the end of period ROE in the shortened sustainable growth rate results in a growth rate that is too low.
This will always occur whenever the equity increases. If equity increases, the ROE based on end of period
equity is lower than the ROE based on the beginning of period equity. The ROE (and sustainable growth rate)
in the abbreviated equation is based on equity that did not exist when the net income was earned.
26. (LO5) The ROA using end of period assets is:
ROA = $19,000 / $250,000
ROA = .076 or 7.6
The beginning of period assets had to have been the ending assets minus the addition to retained earnings, so:
Beginning assets = Ending assets Addition to retained earnings
Beginning assets = $250,000 ($19,000 2,500)
Beginning assets = $233,500
And the ROA using beginning of period assets is:
ROA = $19,000 / $233,500
ROA = .081370449 or .8.14%
Using the internal growth rate equation presented in the text, we get:
Internal growth rate = [.076(.8684)] / [1 .076(.8684)]
Using the formula ROA R, and end of period assets:
Internal growth rate = .076 .8684
Using the formula ROA R, and beginning of period assets:
Internal growth rate = .081370449 .8684
27. (LO2) Assuming costs vary with sales and a 20 percent increase in sales, the pro forma income statement will
look like this:

or:

Dividends = $41,028
And the addition to retained earnings will be:

Addition to retained earnings = $95,732
The new addition to retained earnings on the pro forma balance sheet will be:
New retained earnings = $182,900 + 95,690
New retained earnings = $278,590
The pro forma balance sheet will look like this:

So the EFN is:

EFN = Total assets Total liabilities and equity
EFN = $679,080 675,232
EFN = 3,848
28. (LO2) First, we need to calculate full capacity sales, which is:
Full capacity sales = $929,000 / .80
Full capacity sales = $1,161,250
The capital intensity ratio at full capacity sales is:
Capital intensity ratio = Fixed assets / Full capacity sales
Capital intensity ratio = $413,000 / $1,161,250
Capital intensity ratio = .355651237
The fixed assets required at full capacity sales is the capital intensity ratio times the projected sales level:
Total fixed assets = .35565($1,114,800) = $396,480
So, EFN is:
EFN = ($183,480 + $396,480) $675,232 = $95,272
Note that this solution assumes that fixed assets are decreased (sold) so the company has a 100 percent fixed
asset utilization. If we assume fixed assets are not sold, the answer becomes:
EFN = ($183,480 + 413,000) $675,232 = $78,752
29. (LO2) The D/E ratio of the company is:
D/E = ($85,000 + 158,000) / $322,900
D/E = .75255
So the new total debt amount will be:
New total debt = .75255($418,632)
New total debt = $315,043.59
This is the new total debt for the company. Given that our calculation for EFN is the amount that must be
raised externally and does not increase spontaneously with sales, we need to subtract the spontaneous increase
in accounts payable. The new level of accounts payable will be, which is the current accounts payable times
the sales growth, or:
Spontaneous increase in accounts payable = $68,000(.20)
Spontaneous increase in accounts payable = $13,600
This means that $13,600 of the new total debt is not raised externally. So, the debt raised externally, which will be
the EFN is:
EFN = New total debt (Beginning LTD Beginning CL Spontaneous increase in AP)
EFN = $315,043.59 [$158,000 + (68,000 + 17,000)] 13,600 = $58,443.59
The pro forma balance sheet with the new long-term debt will be:

The funds raised by the debt issue can be put into an excess cash account to make the balance sheet balance.
The excess debt will be:
Excess debt = $731,675.59 679,080 = $54,595.59
To make the balance sheet balance, the company will have to increase its assets. We will put this amount in an
account called excess cash, which will give us the following balance sheet:

The excess cash has an opportunity cost that we discussed earlier. Increasing fixed assets would also not be a
good idea since the company already has enough fixed assets. A likely scenario would be the repurchase of
debt and equity in its current capital structure weights. The companys debt-assets and equity assets are:
Debt-assets = .75255 / (1 + .75255) = .4294
Equity-assets = 1 / (1 + .75255) = .5706
So, the amount of debt and equity needed will be:
Total debt needed = .4294($679,080) = $291,600
Equity needed = .5706($679,080) = $387,480
So, the repurchases of debt and equity will be:
Debt repurchase = ($98,600 + 216,443.59) 291,600 = $23,443.59
Equity repurchase = $418,632 387,480 = $31,152
Assuming all of the debt repurchase is from long-term debt, and the equity repurchase is entirely from the
retained earnings, the final pro forma balance sheet will be:

We will calculate the EFN for the 15 percent growth rate first. Assuming the payout ratio is constant, the
dividends paid will be:
Dividends = ($33,735/$112,450)($130,682.50)
Dividends = $39,204.75
Addition to retained earnings = $130,682.50
The new retained earnings on the pro forma balance sheet will be:

At a 20 percent growth rate, and assuming the payout ratio is constant, the dividends paid will be:

So the EFN is:

EFN = $24,488.75
Inspection of the plot shows that EFN = 0 at approximately 18% growth rate. The formula for EFN is:
EFN = -(PM)(R) + [(TA) (PM)(R)](g) = Increase in total assets Addition to retained earnings
Setting EFN = 0 gives :

g = (PM)(R) / [(TA) (PM)(R)]
This EFN equation is derived under the assumption that current liabilities are lumped together with long-term
liabilities and that neither of these liabilities varies with sales, so that the only change on the right-hand side of
the balance sheet occurs in retained earnings. However, in this question accounts payable vary with sales.
Hence, we will not obtain exactly the same growth rate in this question at EFN = 0 from the plot as from the
formula.

Under the sustainable growth rate assumption, the company maintains a constant debt-equity ratio. The D/E
ratio of the company is:
D/E = ($158,000 + 85,000) / $322,900
D/E = .75255
Dividends = ($33,735/$112,450)($136,760)
Dividends = $41,028
Addition to retained earnings = $136,760 41,028
The new total debt will be:
New total debt = .75255($418,632)
So, the new long-term debt will be the new total debt minus the new short-term debt, or:
New long-term debt = $315,043.59 98,600
New long-term debt = $216,443.59

$ 756,043.01,
So the EFN is:

EFN = $763,965 756,043.01
EFN = 7,921.99
Inspection of the plot shows that EFN = 0 at approximately 38% growth rate. The formula for EFN is:
EFN = -(PM)(R) + [(TA) (PM)(R)](g) = Increase in total assets Addition to retained earnings
Setting EFN = 0 gives :
g = (PM)(R) / [(TA) (PM)(R)]
This EFN equation is derived under the assumption that current liabilities are lumped together with long-term
liabilities and that neither of these liabilities varies with sales, so that the only change on the right-hand side of
the balance sheet occurs in retained earnings. However, in this question accounts payable vary with sales and
long term debt varies with equity. Hence, we will not obtain exactly the same growth rate in this question at
EFN = 0 from the plot as from the formula.
32. (LO4) We must have the ROE to calculate the sustainable growth rate. The ROE is:
ROE = (PM)(TAT)(EM)
ROE = (.067)(1 / 1.35)(1 + 0.3)
ROE = .0645 or 6.45%
Now we can use the sustainable growth rate equation to find the retention ratio as:
Sustainable growth rate = .12 = [.0645(R)] / [1 .0645(R)]
R = 1.66
This implies the payout ratio is:
Payout ratio = 1 R
Payout ratio = 1 1.66
Payout ratio = 0.66
This is a negative dividend payout ratio of 66 percent, which is impossible. The growth rate is not consistent
with the other constraints. The lowest possible payout rate is 0, which corresponds to retention ratio of 1, or
total earnings retention.
The maximum sustainable growth rate for this company is:
Maximum sustainable growth rate = (ROE R) / [1 (ROE R)]
Maximum sustainable growth rate = [.0645(1)] / [1 .0645(1)]
Maximum sustainable growth rate = .06896 or 6.896%
33. EFN (LO2)
External Financing Needed (EFN) = Asset needs Additions to Retained Earnings
EFN = A(g) PM(S)b x (1+g) (then we expand the formula)
EFN = A(g) PM(S)b PM(S)b(g) (then simply rearrange formula and isolate g)
EFN = -PM(S)b + (A PM(S)b) x g
34. Growth Rates (LO3)
The Internal Growth Rate is the rate of growth that a company can maintain with only internal financing (or
from earnings.
Since there is no External Financing Needed we set EFN = 0 as the retained earnings are sufficient to fund the
growth
EFN = -PM (S) b + (A PM (S) b) x g
0 = -PM(S)b + (A-PM(S)b) x g (simply rearrange and isolate g)
g = PM (S) b
A PM (S) b
Divide the equation through by A
You get = (PM(S) x b) / ( A PM (S) b)
A
note that ROA = PM (S)

A
Therefore the Internal Growth Rate = (ROA x b) / (1 ROA x b)
The sustainable growth rate is the growth rate a firm can maintain given its debt capacity, ROE and retention ratio.
Assuming you wish to maintain the same D/E ratio of the firm.
Therefore D/E = New Borrowings/Additions to Retained Earnings
New Borrowings = D/E ( PM(S)b x (1+g) )
Since Additions to RE = (PM(S)b x (1+g) )
EFN = Increase in total Assets Additions to RE New borrowings
Therefore EFN = A ( g ) PM (S) b x (1+g) PM (S) b x (1+g) x D/E
Set EFN = O = A (g) PM(S)b x (1+g) PM(S)b x (1+g) x D/E
We solve for g and then divide both the numerator and denominator by A which results in
g = PM(S)b x (1+D/E) / (A PM(S)b (1+D/E))
g = (ROA (1+D/E) b) / (1 ROA (1+ D/E) b) Note ROA = PM(S) / A
g = (ROE x b) / (1 ROE x b)
35. Sustainable Growth Rate (LO3)
In the following derivations, the subscript E refers to end of period numbers, and the subscript
B refers to beginning of period numbers. TE is total equity and TA is total assets.
For the sustainable growth rate:
Sustainable growth rate = (ROEE b) / (1 ROEE b)
Sustainable growth rate = (NI/TEE b) / (1 NI/TEE b)
We multiply this equation by:
(TEE / TEE)
Sustainable growth rate = (NI / TEE b) / (1 NI / TEE b) (TEE / TEE)
Sustainable growth rate = (NI b) / (TEE NI b)
Recognize that the numerator is equal to beginning of period equity, that is:
(TEE NI b) = TEB
Sustainable rate = (NI b) / TEB
Which is equivalent to:
Sustainable rate = (NI / TEB) b

Since ROEB = NI / TEB
The sustainable growth rate equation is:
Sustainable growth rate = ROEB b
For the internal growth rate:
Internal growth rate = (ROAE b) / (1 ROAE b)
Internal growth rate = (NI / TAE b) / (1 NI / TAE b)
We multiply this equation by:
(TAE / TAE)
Internal growth rate = (NI / TAE b) / (1 NI / TAE b) (TAE / TAE)
Internal growth rate = (NI b) / (TAE NI b)
Recognize that the numerator is equal to beginning of period assets, that is:
(TAE NI b) = TAB
Internal growth rate = (NI b) / TAB
Which is equivalent to:
Internal growth rate = (NI / TAB) b
Since ROAB = NI / TAB
The internal growth rate equation is:
Internal growth rate = ROAB b
