- (Related to Checkpoint 17.1) (Forecasting discretionary financing needs) In the spring of 2023, the Caswell Publishing Company established a custom publishing business for its business clients. These clients consisted principally of small- to medium-size companies in Round Rock, Texas. However, the company's plans were disrupted when it landed a large printing contract which it expects will run for several years. Specifically, the new contract will increase firm revenues by 100 percent. Consequently, Caswell's managers know they will need to make some significant changes in firm capacity, and quickly. The following balance sheet for 2023 and pro forma balance sheet for 2024 reflect the firm's estimates of the financial impact of the 100 percent revenue growth: a. How much new discretionary financing will Caswell require based on the above estimates? b. Given the nature of the new contract and the specific needs for financing that the firm expects, what recommendations might you offer…arrow_forward(Related to Checkpoint 17.1) (Forecasting discretionary financing needs) Bates Fabricators, Inc. estimates that it invests 25 cents in assets for each dollar of new sales. However, 4 cents in profits are produced by each dollar of additional sales, of which 1 cent(s) can be reinvested in the firm. If sales rise by $773,000 next year from their current level of $5.36 million, and the ratio of spontaneous liabilities to sales is 0.17, what will be the firm's need for discretionary financing? (Hint: In this situation, you do not know what the firm's existing level of assets is, nor do you know how those assets have been financed. Thus, you must estimate the change in financing needs and match this change with the expected changes in spontaneous liabilities, retained earnings, and other sources of discretionary financing.) The discretionary financing needs will be $ (Round to the nearest dollar.)arrow_forwardI mistakenly submitted blurr image please comment i will write values. please dont Solve with incorrect values otherwise unhelpful.need helparrow_forward
