1. Pro Forma Statements [LO1] Consider the following simplified financial
statements for the Phillips Corporation (assuming no income taxes):
Income Statement
Sales
$23,000 Assets
Costs
16,700
Net income $ 6,300
Balance Sheet
$15,800 Debt
Equity
Total
$ 5,200
10,600
$15,800
Total
$15,800
Phillips has predicted a sales increase of 15 percent. It has predicted that every item
on the balance sheet will increase by 15 percent as well. Create the pro forma
statements and reconcile them. What is the plug variable here?
2. Pro Forma Statements and EFN [LO1, 2] In the previous question, assume
Phillips pays out half of net income in the form of a cash dividend. Costs and assets
vary with sales, but debt and equity do not. Prepare the pro forma statements and
determine the external financing needed.
