27. Percent-of-sales method (LO3) Owen’s Electronics has nine operating plants in seven
Southwestern states. Sales for last year were $100 million, and the balance sheet at
year-end is similar in percentage of sales to that of previous years (and this will continue in
the future). All assets (including fixed assets) and current liabilities will vary directly with
sales. The firm is working at full capacity.

28. Percent-of-sales method (LO3) The Manning Company has financial statements as shown
next, which are representative of the company’s historical average.
The firm is expecting a 35 percent increase in sales next year, and management is
concerned about the company’s need for external funds. The increase in sales is expected to
be carried out without any expansion of fixed assets, but rather through more efficient asset
utilization in the existing store. Among liabilities, only current liabilities vary directly with
sales.
Using the percent-of-sales method, determine whether the company has external
financing needs, or a surplus of funds. (Hint: A profit margin and payout ratio must be
found from the income statement.)

The firm’s marketing staff has told the president that in the coming year there will be a
large increase in the demand for overcoats and wool slacks. A sales increase of 20 percent
is forecast for the company.
All balance sheet items are expected to maintain the same percent-of-sales relationships
as last year, except for common stock and retained earnings. No change is scheduled in the
number of common stock shares outstanding, and retained earnings will change as dictated
by the profits and dividend policy of the firm. (Remember the net profit margin is 9
percent.)
a. Will external financing be required for the company during the coming year?
b. What would be the need for external financing if the net profit margin went up to 10.5
percent and the dividend payout ratio was increased to 60 percent? Explain.
