Reference no: EM13746005
Renbud Computer Services Co. (RCS) specializes in customized software development for the broadcast and telecommunications industries. The company was started by three people in 1973 to develop software primarily for a national network to be used in broadcasting national election results. After sustained and manageable growth for many years, the company has grown very fast over the last three years, doubling in size.
This growth has placed the company in a challenging financial position. Within thirty days, RCS will need to renew its $300,000 loan with the Third State Bank of San Marcos. This loan is classified as a current liability on RCS's balance sheet. Harvey Renbud, president of RCS, is concerned about renewing the loan. The bank has requested RCS's most recent financial statements, which appear below, including balance sheets for this year and last year. The bank has also requested four ratios relating to operating performance and liquidity.
