At year-end 2019, Wallace Landscaping’s total assets were $2.30 million, and its accounts payable were $430,000. Sales, which in 2019 were $2.9 million, are expected to increase by 20% in 2020. Total assets and accounts payable are proportional to sales, and that relationship will be maintained. Wallace typically uses no current liabilities other than accounts payable. Common stock amounted to $630,000 in 2019, and retained earnings were $330,000. Wallace has arranged to sell $180,000 of new common stock in 2020 to meet some of its financing needs. The remainder of its financing needs will be met by issuing new long-term debt at the end of 2020. (Because the debt is added at the end of the year, there will be no additional interest expense due to the new debt.) Its net profit margin on sales is 5%, and 50% of earnings will be paid out as dividends.

The financial information that Staci has been given suggests that the company is financially strong. Although she has not been able to validate information a friend provided to her via e-mail, Staci is concerned that the financial information she has been provided by ProTech might paint a better financial picture than actually exists. Staci’s concern has been inflated as the result of pressure from her boss to set a good price for the IPO. In addition, it has been reported (rumored) that Staci’s boss is a friend (perhaps close) with the CEO of ProTech. Staci has completed her analysis based on the information she was provided by ProTech, and she is ready to assign a price to the company’s stock. But, if the additional, unconfirmed information she has is correct, the price she sets might differ from what her analysis…arrow_forward
