6. [Multi-Year Financial Statement Projections] The Minoso Corporation anticipates a 20
percent increase in sales for 2020, 2021, and 2022. Minoso is currently operating at full
capacity and thus expects to increase its investment in both current and fixed assets in order
to support the increase in forecasted sales. The Minoso Corporation’s 2019 income and
balance sheet statements are given in problem 4.
A. Prepare an Excel spreadsheet model that projects the income statement, balance sheet, and
statement of cash flows for 2020 prior to obtaining any additional financing. Use a separate
B. Extend your 2020 spreadsheet-based financial statement projections for two additional years
(2021 and 2022). What is the total amount of AFN needed over the three-year period?

C. Show how your spreadsheet model projections will change if the AFN from Part B is
financed by issuing additional long-term debt at a 10% interest rate.
The AFN for 2020 increases from 1120 prior to obtaining any additional debt and/or equity
financing to 1160.3 after financing the initial 1120 with long-term debt at a 10 percent
The total (cumulative) amount of AFN needed over the 2020-22 three-year period assuming
the AFN is financed with long-term debt (LTD) at a 10 percent interest rate is estimated to be
4256.1 or an additional 271.5 (4256.1 – 3984.6) to cover financing the AFN with LTD at a 10
percent interest rate.

MINI CASE: PHARMA BIOTECH CORPORATION
The Pharma Biotech Corporation spent several years working on developing a DHA product that
can be used to provide a “fatty acid” supplement to a whole variety of food products. DHA
stands for docsahexaenoic acid, an omega-3 fatty acid found naturally in cold water fish. The
benefits of fatty fish oil have been cited in studies of the brain, eyes, and the immune system.

Pharma Biotech, however, is concerned with forecasting its financial statements for next

as the venture ramps up sales next year. Pharma Biotech expects to introduce a DHA product
Part A
Pharma Biotech is interested in developing an initial “big picture” of the size of financing
that might be needed to support its rapid growth objectives for 2020 and 2021.
A. Calculate the following financial ratios (as covered in Chapter 5) for Pharma Biotech for
2019: (a) net profit margin, (b) sales-to-total-assets ratio, (c) equity multiplier, and (d)
total-debt-to-total-assets. Apply the return on assets and return on equity models.
Discuss your observations.
(a) net profit margin: 960/15,000 = .0640 = 6.40%
(b) sales-to-total-assets: 15,000/12,000 = 1.2500 times
(c) equity multiplier: 12,000/5,200 = 2.3077 times
B. Estimate Pharma’s sustainable sales growth rate based on its 2019 financial statements.
[Hint: you need to estimate the beginning of period stockholders’ equity based on the
information provided.] What financial policy change might Pharma Biotech make to
improve its sustainable growth rate? Show your calculations.
Beginning stockholders’ equity = ending stockholders’ equity – added 2019 retained
earnings = (2,400 + 2,800) 576 = 5,200 576 = 4,624
C. Estimate the additional funds needed (AFN) for 2020, using the formula or equation
method presented in the chapter.
2020 sales = 15,000 x 1.50 = 22,500
Change in sales = 22,500 15,000 = 7,500
Retention Rate (RR) = 1 Dividend Payout Ratio = 1 – .40 = .60
D. Also, estimate the AFN using the equation method for Pharma Biotech for 2021. What
will be the cumulative AFN for the two-year period?
2020 sales = 22,500 (from Part C)
2021 sales = 22,500 x 1.80 = 40,500
Part B
Pharma Biotech is seeking your assistance in preparing its projected financial statements using
the percent-of-sales method. Initial projected financial statements can be prepared by hand
using a financial calculator or by constructing spreadsheetbased solutions.
A. Prepare a projected income statement for 2020 for Pharma Biotech before obtaining any
additional financing. [Hint: for those who need help, follow the projected income
statement shown in Table 9.1 for the GameToy Company.]
Spreadsheet results are provided below.
additional financing has not been obtained. The AFN formula assumes that the profit
margin will remain constant, which means that all expenses are variable or move directly
with sales.
Part C
The following tasks or challenges are best handled by setting up spreadsheetbased methods
projecting financial statements.
A. Prepare projected income statements, balance sheets, and statements of cash flows for
Pharma Biotech for 2021 that build upon the projections for 2020 prepared in Part B
above. What is the cumulative (2020 and 2021) amount of additional funds needed?
Spreadsheet results are provided below. The amount of funds needed is $3,664 in 2020
and $9,240 in 2021. The two-year total is $12,903. The $1 difference ($12,903 versus
$12,904) is due to rounding each of the annual AFN to the nearest dollar. Recall that the
B. Calculate the total-debt-to-total-assets ratio and the equity multiplier ratio (covered in
Chapter 5) assuming the cumulative AFN is financed with debt funds. How would these
ratios compare with the same ratios calculated for 2019 in [Part A] Item A above?
2020 total-debt-to-total-assets ratio = (current liabilities + long-term debt + 2017 AFN) =
(6,001 + 2200 + 3664)/18,000 = 11,865/18,000 = .6592 = 65.92%
