LG4 15-1 Suppose that Wall-E Corp. currently has the following balance sheet, and that sales for
the year just ended were $7 million. The firm also has a profit margin of 27 percent, a
retention ratio of 20 percent, and expects sales of $9 million next year. Fixed assets are
currently fully utilized, and the nature of Wall-E’s fixed assets is such that they must be
added in $1 million increments. If current assets and current liabilities are expected to
grow with sales, what amount of additional funds will Wall-E need from external sources
to fund the expected growth?

Effect of Capital Structure on AFN
Suppose that the 2013 actual and 2014 projected financial statements for your firm are initially
shown as follows. In these tables, sales are projected to rise by 18 percent in the coming year,
and the components of the income statement and balance sheet that are expected to increase at
the same 18 percent rate as sales are indicated by green type. Assuming that your firm has to pay
9 percent interest on debt, what would the AFN be if needed capital was to be raised entirely
from equity?
How would your answer change if the entire AFN was to be raised from long-term debt? And
what does this imply about the relationship between the sources of funding and the amount
needed?
