month. Interest payments of $30,000 are due in June and September. A cash dividend of $50,000 is
scheduled to be paid in June. Tax payments of $25,000 are due in June and September. There is a

The Manning Company has financial statements, which are representative of the company’s historical average.
The firm is expecting a 20 percent increase in sales next year, and management is concerned about the
company’s need for external funds. The increase in sales is expected to be carried out without any expansion
of fixed assets, but rather through more efficient asset utilization in the existing store. Among liabilities, only
current liabilities vary directly with sales.
Using the percent-of-sales method, determine whether the company has external financing needs or a surlpus
of funds. (Hint: A profit margin and payout ratio must be found from the income statement.)
