Problem 17-6 Costs of Financial Distress
Steinberg Corporation and Dietrich Corporation are identical firms except that Dietrich is
more levered. Both companies will remain in business for one more year. The
companies' economists agree that the probability of the continuation of the current
expansion is 80 percent for the next year and the probability of a recession is 20
percent. If the expansion continues, each firm will generate earnings before interest and
taxes (EBIT) of $3.1 million. If a recession occurs, each firm will generate earnings before
interest and taxes (EBIT) of $1.5 million. Steinberg's debt obligation requires the firm to
pay $940,000 at the end of the year. Dietrich's debt obligation requires the firm to pay
$1.6 million at the end of the year. Neither firm pays taxes. Assume a discount rate of 15
percent.

International Network Solutions provides products and services related to remote access networking. The com-
pany has grown rapidly during its first 10 years of operations. As its segment of the industry has begun to mature,

same as last year.

Iris Company is considering lenghtening its credit period from 40 days to 45 days and believes, as a result of this change, its average collection period will increase from 40 days to 45 days. Bad debt expenses are
also expected to increase from 1% to 2% of sales. The firm is currently selling 300,000 units but believes as a result of the change, sales will increase to 325,000 units. On 300,000 units, sales revenue is $4,200,000,
variable costs total $3,300,000, and fixed costs are $300,000. The firm has a required return on similar-risk investments of 12%. Evaluate this proposed change and make a recommendation to the firm

- Problem 1 In 2020, Plumpton Company started selling new computer that carried a 2-year warranty against defects Plumpton sold P5,000,000 computers evenly throughout 2020. 50% of the sales are expected to be repaired in 2020 and the rest in 2021. The entity estimated that 80% of the products will have no defects. 5% will have major defects and 15% will have minor defects. If all products were to have major defects the total cost would be 2,000,000. But, if all products were to have minor defects the total repairs would only cost 500,000.

This coming year, in addition to continuing to operate these same 20 store locations, Logan has decided to open 3 new stores. Logan plans to open these stores on January 1 of the coming year, and the stores will be fully functional and ready for business on the first day of the coming year.

- INTEGRATED CASE NEW WORLD CHEMICALS INC. FINANCIAL FORECASTING Sue Wilson, the new financial manager of New World Chemicals (NWC), a California producer of specialized chemicals for use in fruit orchards, must prepare a formal financial forecast for 2017. NWCs 2016 sales were 2 billion, and the marketing department is forecasting a 25% increase for 2017. Wilson thinks the company was operating at full capacity in 2016, but she is not sure. The first step in her forecast was to assume that key ratios would remain unchanged and that it would be business as usual at NWC. The 2016 financial statements, the 2017 initial forecast, and a ratio analysis for 2016 and the 2017 initial forecast are given in Table IC 16.1. Assume that you were recently hired as Wilsons assistant and that your first major task is to help her develop the formal financial forecast. She asks you to begin by answering the following questions. a. Assume (1) that NWC was operating at full capacity in 2016 with respect to all assets, (2) that all assets must grow at the same rate as sales, (3) that accounts payable and accrued liabilities also will grow at the same rate as sales, and (4) that the 2016 profit margin and dividend payout will be maintained. Under those conditions, what would the AFN equation predict the companys financial requirements to be for the coming year? b. Consultations with several key managers within NWC, including production, inventory, and receivable managers, have yielded some very useful information. 1. NWCs high DSO is largely due to one significant customer who battled through some hardships the past 2 years but who appears to be financially healthy again and is generating strong cash flow. As a result, NWCs accounts receivable manager expects the Firm to lower receivables enough for a calculated DSO of 34 days without adversely affecting sales. 2. NWC was operating slightly below capacity; but its forecasted growth will require a new facility, which is expected to increase NWCs net Fixed assets to 700 million. 3. A relatively new inventory management system (installed last year) has taken some time to catch on and to operate efficiently. NWCs inventory turnover improved slightly last year, but this year NWC expects even more improvement as inventories decrease and inventory turnover is expected to rise to 10. Incorporate that information into the 2017 initial forecast results, as these adjustments to the initial forecast represent the final forecast for 2017. (Hint: Total assets do not change from the initial forecast.) c. Calculate NWCs forecasted ratios based on its final forecast and compare them with the companys 2016 historical ratios, the 2017 initial forecast ratios, and the industry averages. How does NWC compare with the average firm in its industry, and is the companys financial position expected to improve during the coming year? Explain. d. Based on the final forecast, calculate NWCs free cash flow for 2017. How does this FCF differ from the FCF forecasted by NWCs initial business as usual forecast? e. Initially, some NWC managers questioned whether the new facility expansion was necessary, especially as it results in increasing net fixed assets from 500 million to 700 million (a 40% increase). However, after extensive discussions about NWC needing to position itself for future growth and being flexible and competitive in todays marketplace, NWCs top managers agreed that the expansion was necessary. Among the issues raised by opponents was that NWCs fixed assets were being operated at only 85% of capacity. Assuming that its fixed assets were operating at only 85% of capacity, by how much could sales have increased, both in dollar terms and in percentage terms, before NWC reached full capacity? f. How would changes in the following items affect the AFN: (1) the dividend payout ratio, (2) the profit margin, (3) the capital intensity ratio, and (4) NWC beginning to buy from its suppliers on terms that permit it to pay after 60 days rather than after 30 days? (Consider each item separately and hold all other things constant.) TABLE IC 16.1 Financial Statements and Other Data on NWC (Millions of Dollars) A.
