Krogh Lumber: Income Statement for December 31, 2019 (thousands of dollars)

Chapter 16, Problem 14P, EXCESS CAPACITY Krogh Lumbers 2019 financial statements are shown here. Krogh Lumber: Balance Sheet , example  2

  1. a. Assume that the company was operating at full capacity in 2019 with regard to all items except fixed assets; fixed assets in 2019 were being utilized to only 75% of capacity. By what percentage could 2020 sales increase over 2019 sales without the need for an increase in fixed assets?
  2. b. Now suppose 2020 sales increase by 25% over 2019 sales. Assume that Krogh cannot sell any fixed assets. All assets other than fixed assets will grow at the same rate as sales; however, after reviewing industry averages, the firm would like to reduce its operating costs/sales ratio to 82% and increase its total liabilities-to-assets ratio to 42%. The firm will maintain its 60% dividend payout ratio, and it currently has 1 million shares outstanding. The firm plans to raise 35% of its 2020 forecasted interest-bearing debt as notes payable, and it will issue bonds for the remainder. The firm forecasts that its before-tax cost of debt (which includes both short- and long-term debt) is 11%. Any stock issuances or repurchases will be made at the firm’s current stock price of $40. Develop Krogh’s projected financial statements like those shown in Table 16.2. What are the balances of notes payable, bonds, common stock, and retained earnings?
