Calculating EFN The most recent financial statements for Moose Tours, Inc., appear below. Sales for 2012 are projected to grow by 20 percent. Interest expense will remain constant; the tax rate and the dividend payout rate will also remain constant. Costs, other expenses, current assets, fixed assets, and accounts payable increase spontaneously with sales. If the firm is operating at full capacity and no new debt or equity is issued, what external financing is needed to support the 20 percent growth rate in sales?
Use spreadsheet for the ease in computation.
Compute the amount of EFN (External Fund Needed) in the following steps:
First step: Prepare Proforma income statement for the 20% growth rate in sales as follows:
Enter values and formulas in the spreadsheet as shown in the image below to prepare Proforma income statement.
Second step: Compute debt-equity ratio as follows:

It is evident from the above image that the Total liabilities and owners’ equity is more than the Total assets. It means firm has excess cash of $43,559 which will cost to the company. Also, the firm has sufficient fixed, thus, increasing level of assets is not a good idea.
Thus, it would be better to utilize excess cash to repurchase equity and debt. It should be kept in mind that the excess of debt will be used to repurchase of debt and excess of equity will be used to repurchase equity.
Enter values and formulas in the spreadsheet as shown in the image below to prepare Proforma balance sheet.
Fifth step: The level of debt and equity after repurchase is provided below.
Formulas used in spreadsheet for computation are shown below.
Finally, prepare the balance sheet after repurchase of debt and equity as shown in the image below.
