The company expects sales to increase substantially next year and anticipates that its raw material purchases will increase to an average of $22,000 per day. Milton feels that it may need to finance part of this sales expansion by stretching accounts payable. Round your answers to the nearest dollar. Assuming that Milton currently waits until the end of the credit period to pay its raw material suppliers, what is its current level of trade credit? $ If Milton stretches its accounts payable an extra 5 days beyond the due date next year, how much additional short-term funds (that is, trade credit) will be generated? $ solution is incorrectarrow_forwardQuick Computing currently sells 11 million computer chips each year at a price of $31 per chip. It is about to introduce a new chip, and it forecasts annual sales of 21 million of these improved chips at a price of $39 each. However, demand for the old chip will decrease, and sales of the old chip are expected to fall to 1 million per year. The old chips cost $16 each to manufacture, and the new ones will cost $10 each. What is the proper cash flow to use to evaluate the present value of the introduction of the new chip? cash flow = _____ milionarrow_forwardHonda Motor Company is considering offering a $2,100 rebate on its minivan, lowering the vehicle's price from $30,900 to $28,800. The marketing group estimates that this rebate will increase sales over the next year from 39,100 to 56,800 vehicles. Suppose Honda's profit margin with the rebate is $5,090 per vehicle. If the change in sales is the only consequence of this decision, what are its costs and benefits? Is it a good idea? Hint: View this question in terms of incremental profits. The cost of the rebate will be $ million. (Round to one decimal place.)arrow_forward
- Apollo Data Systems is considering a promotional campaign that will increase annual credit sales by $528,000. The company has a 60% cost of goods sold and will require investments in accounts receivable, inventory, and plant and equipment. The turnover for each is as follows: Accounts receivable Inventory Plant and equipment 5x 8x 2x All $528,000 of the sales will be collectible. However, collection costs will be 4 percent of sales, and production and selling costs will be 78 percent of sales. The cost to carry inventory will be 10 percent of inventory. Amortization expense on plant and equipment will be 5 percent of plant and equipment. The tax rate is 30 percent. Inventory is calculated using cost of goods sold and not sales. a.

- Hyperion, Inc. currently sells its latest high-speed colour printer, the Hyper 500, for $371. It plans to lower the price to $318 next year. Its cost of goods sold for the Hyper 500 is $212 per unit, and this year's sales are expected to be 21,000 units. a. Suppose that, if Hyperion drops the price to $318 immediately, it can increase this year's sales by 27% to 26,670 units. What would be the incremental impact on this year's EBIT of such a price drop? b. Suppose that, for each printer sold, Hyperion expects additional sales of $78 per year on ink cartridges for the three years, and Hyperion has a gross profit margin of 61% on ink cartridges.
