Summary Introduction

Case summary:

Chief financing officer of Company RR, a speciality coffee manufacturer, is re-thinking about its working capital policy and wants to re-new its line of credit and it wouldn’t ready to build payroll, probably forcing the company out of business.

The scare has forced the company to examine carefully about each component of working capital to make sure it is required, and decide whether the goal is to determine the line of credit are often eliminated entirely.

Previously, it has done little to look at assets and mainly because of poor communication among business functions and the decisions about working capital cannot be made at vacuum.

Characters in the case:

  • Company RR and,
  • Person J.

To discuss: Reason of having a positive target cash balance by company, if cash doesn’t earn interest.

Now suppose Elijah offers a discount on subsequent rooms for each house, such that he charges $40 for his frist room, $35 for his second, and $25 for each room thereafter. Assume 30% of his clients have only one room cleaned, 25% have two rooms cleaned, 30% have three rooms cleaned, and the remaining 15% have four rooms cleaned.  How many houses will he have to clean before breaking even? If taxes are 25% of profits, how many rooms will he have to clean before making $15,000 profit?                           Answer the question by making a CVP worksheet similar to the depreciation sheets. Make sure it works well, uses cell references and functions/formulas when appropriate, and looks nice.
