Broussard Skateboard's sales are expected to increase by 15% from $8.6 million in 2016 to $9.89 million in 2017. Its assets totaled $6 million at the end of 2016. Broussard is already at full capacity, so its assets must grow at the same rate as projected sales. At the end of 2016, current liabilities were $1.4 million, consisting of $450,000 of accounts payable, $500,000 of notes payable, and $450,000 of accruals. The after-tax profit margin is forecasted to be 4%, and the forecasted payout ratio is 55%. What would be the additional funds needed? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. $
Assume that the company's year-end 2016 assets had been $2 million. Is the company's "capital intensity" ratio the same or different?
I. The capital intensity ratio is measured as A0*/S0. Broussard's capital intensity ratio is lower than that of the firm with $2 million year-end 2016 assets; therefore, Broussard is more capital intensive - it would require a larger increase in total assets to support the increase in sales.
II. The capital intensity ratio is measured as A0*/S0. Broussard's capital intensity ratio is lower than that of the firm with $2 million year-end 2016 assets; therefore, Broussard is more capital intensive - it would require a smaller increase in total assets to support the increase in sales.
III. The capital intensity ratio is measured as A0*/S0. Broussard's capital intensity ratio is higher than that of the firm with $2 million year-end 2016 assets; therefore, Broussard is less capital intensive - it would require a smaller increase in total assets to support the increase in sales.
IV. The capital intensity ratio is measured as A0*/S0. Broussard's capital intensity ratio is higher than that of the firm with $2 million year-end 2016 assets; therefore, Broussard is less capital intensive - it would require a larger increase in total assets to support the increase in sales.
