Assumptions
1. We are assuming the forecast rate as a % of forecasted sale for that year for all items except cash, inventory, Gross assets, Depreciation , interest, long term debt and current maturities
And that forecasted percentage is derived by finding the item as a % of sales for yr 1995. For ex-COGS in 1995 is 58% of sales in 1995. And this 58% is assumed to be the forecasting rate for future years for COGS2. We are assuming that increase in Bank debt (plug) happens at the end of the year as the management is conservative and will take extra liability as late as it can. So interest on the pulg for 1996 will be charged in the year 19973. We are assuming the interest rate on the old Long term Debt also to be 10%. When we actually found out historical interest rate it was coming around 10.xx%. So we are taking 10% to avoid fractional values4. We are assuming income tax rate of year 1995 for the future years5. Interest on the external financing plug of 1995 will be provided in the year 1996 and it will be outstanding interest

Q8)
TCI’s future financial health looks fairly stable over the years analyzed and forecasted. With the forecast from the management, there is an increase in sales and stable ratios. The increase in sales each year does not show an increase in expenses at the same level. This position allows the net income to grow. The increase in net income shows that TCI is in a good position to obtain the loan. Therefore, it is recommended that the bank loan TCI the funds.

Question 2Based on Mr Martin's Sales predictions for 1996 sales of 28206000$ and for 1997 sales of 33847000 and relying on other assumptions provided in the case, prepare a pro forma income statementbalance sheet and cash flow statement for 1996 and 1997. As a prelimnary assumption assume that any new financing need will be required in the form of bank debt
Assumptions
1. We are assuming the forecast rate as a % of forecasted sale for that year for all items except cash, inventory, Gross assets, Depreciation , interest, long term debt and current maturities
And that forecasted percentage is derived by finding the item as a % of sales for yr 1995. For ex-COGS in 1995 is 58% of sales in 1995. And this 58% is assumed to be the forecasting rate for future years for COGS2. We are assuming that increase in Bank debt (plug) happens at the end of the year as the management is conservative and will take extra liability as late as it can. So interest on the pulg for 1996 will be charged in the year 19973. We are assuming the interest rate on the old Long term Debt also to be 10%.

Question 4What will be the impact of on TCI's external funding requirements as of the end of 1996 if:a) inventory were not reduced by the end of 1996b) Accrued Expenses were to grow less than expected in the year 1996
Solutiona) If inventory was not reduced by the end of 1996 then the External Financing need for the year 1996 will be increased from 422870$ to $987870.Also the external funding need for the year 1997 will be reduced to 15660$ .
b) If the accrued expense were to grow less than expected in 1996, then the total of liabilities will be reduced and hence the external financing need required in 1996 and 1997 will be more.For Example: if we reduce accrued expenses ratio to sales to 4%, then the external financing need in 1996 increased to 1278230$ and in 1997 increased to 753540$

What will be the impact of on TCI's external funding requirements as of the end of 1996 if:
b) Accrued Expenses were to grow less than expected in the year 1996
a) If inventory was not reduced by the end of 1996 then the External Financing need for the year 1996 will be increased from 422870$ to $987870.
b) If the accrued expense were to grow less than expected in 1996, then the total of liabilities will be reduced and hence the external financing need required in 1996 and 1997 will be more.For Example: if we reduce accrued expenses ratio to sales to 4%, then the external financing need in 1996 increased to 1278230$ and in 1997 increased to 753540$
ANSWERS
1. We are assuming the forecast rate as a % of forecasted sale for that year for all items except cash, inventory, Gross assets, Depreciation , interest, long term debt and current maturities
And that forecasted percentage is derived by finding the item as a % of sales for yr 1995. For ex-COGS in 1995 is 58% of sales in 1995. And this 58% is assumed to be the forecasting rate for future years for COGS2. We are assuming that increase in Bank debt (plug) happens at the end of the year as the management is conservative and will take extra liability as late as it can.
3. We are assuming the interest rate on the old Long term Debt also to be 10%. When we actually found out historical interest rate it was coming around 10.xx%. So we are taking 10% to avoid fractional values
5. Interest on the external financing plug of 1995 will be provided in the year 1996 and it will be outstanding interest

Question 5What would be the impact on TCI's external funding requirements as of end of 1997 ifa) TCI depreciated more than 5% of the warehouse's total cost in 1997b)TCI experienced higher price inflation in its revenues and operating costs (but not in the costs of its warehouse expansion) than was originally anticipated in 1996 and 1997c) Days receivable were reduced to 45 days or days payables were increased to 45 days
Solutiona) If TCI Depreciated more than 5% of the warehouse total cost in 1997, then the external financing need will also reduce
Depreciated more than 5% ==>PAT for 1997 will be lesser ==> Retained earnings will be lesser ==> total liabilities will be lesser but not as less as assets due to tax effect on retined earnings ==> external funding need required will be lessExample: If Depreciation was increased fom 5% to 10% on warehouse total cost, then external financing need reduced to 545680$
b)TCI experienced higher price inflation in its revenues and operating costs for both the years then, external funding need required will be moreFor Example: the inflation is 10%, then all our growth percentage in sales will be from 20% to ((1+0.2)*(1+0.1)-1) % which is 32%the price inflation in sales which show its effect on operating costs as it is calculated as a percentage of saleshence our external funding requirement in th year 1996 will be increased to 444020$ and in 1997 will be increased to 1174470$
c) Days receivables were reduced to 45 days , or days payables were increased to 45 days1996 1997
old Days receivable 51.98461 51.9846 daysNew A/R is 3302.904 5043 ('000$)
656.63 ('000$)
842.04 ('000$)So when Days receivables were reduced, the External funding was nto required in 1996 instead we have to invest the surplus in marketable securitites
And in 1997 the external funding required increased to 842040$

And this 58% is assumed to be the forecasting rate for future years for COGS2. We are assuming that increase in Bank debt (plug) happens at the end of the year as the management is conservative and will take extra liability as late as it can. So interest on the pulg for 1996 will be charged in the year 19973. We are assuming the interest rate on the old Long term Debt also to be 10%. When we actually found out historical interest rate it was coming around 10.xx%. So we are taking 10% to avoid fractional values4. We are assuming income tax rate of year 1995 for the future years5. Interest on the external financing plug of 1995 will be provided in the year 1996 and it will be outstanding interest

External financing need financed by Bank debt - (Line of credit)
b)TCI experienced higher price inflation in its revenues and operating costs (but not in the costs of its warehouse expansion) than was originally anticipated in 1996 and 1997
3. We are assuming the interest rate on the old Long term Debt also to be 10%. When we actually found out historical interest rate it was coming around 10.xx%. So we are taking 10% to avoid fractional values
int @ 10% on the 1995 Ext Fin Need of 422870$ will be outstanding as it will be repaid in instalments from year 1998
this reduced from 611.78 thousand $ to 587.97 thousand $

int @ 10% on the 1995 Ext Fin Need of 422870$ will be outstanding as it will be repaid in instalments from year 1998
increase in external financing need due to increase in sales growth rate
Question 6Suppose the proposed terms of the bank credit included a covenant that limits TCI to keep a net working capital pf stleast 4$million as of end of each yearIs TCI likely to be able to be able to satisfy this covenant in 1996 and 1997
Solution TCI is not able to satisfy this covenant neither in year 1996 nor in year 1997
Assumptions
1. We are assuming the forecast rate as a % of forecasted sale for that year for all items except cash, inventory, Gross assets, Depreciation , interest, long term debt and current maturities
And that forecasted percentage is derived by finding the item as a % of sales for yr 1995. For ex-COGS in 1995 is 58% of sales in 1995. And this 58% is assumed to be the forecasting rate for future years for COGS2. We are assuming that increase in Bank debt (plug) happens at the end of the year as the management is conservative and will take extra liability as late as it can. So interest on the pulg for 1996 will be charged in the year 19973. We are assuming the interest rate on the old Long term Debt also to be 10%. When we actually found out historical interest rate it was coming around 10.xx%. So we are taking 10% to avoid fractional values4. We are assuming income tax rate of year 1995 for the future years5. Interest on the external financing plug of 1995 will be provided in the year 1996 and it will be outstanding interest
