Sales growth rateIs it possible for the AFN to be negative? If so, what would this indicate?If excess capacity exists, how would that affect the calculated AFN?
Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion
27. EFN Define the following:
S = Previous year’s sales
A = Total assets
E = Total equity
g = Projected growth in sales
PM = Profit margin
b = Retention (plowback) ratio
Assuming that all debt is constant, show that EFN can be written as
EFN = −PM(S)b + [A − PM(S)b] × g
Hint: Asset needs will equal A × g. The addition to retained earnings will equal PM(S)b × (1 + g).
Assume the following ratios are constant:
Total asset
turnover
Profit margin
Equity multiplier
Payout ratio
2.5
6.5%
1.6
20%
