Global Corp expects sales to grow by 9% next year. Assume that Global pays out 50% of its net income. Using the percent of sales method and the data provided forecast the stockholders equity. Income Statement ($million) Balance Sheet ($million) Net Sales 186.2 Assets Cost Except Depreciation -175.2 Cash 22.9 EBITDA 11 Accounts Receivable 18.1 Depreciation and Amortization -1.1 Inventories 15.1 EBIT 9.9 Total Current Assets 56.1 Interest Income (expense) -7.7 Net Property, Plant, and Equipment 113.6 Pre tax Income 2.2 Total Assets 169.7 Taxes -0.6 Net Income 1.6 Liabilities and Equity Accounts Payable 34.4 Long term Debt 113.6 Total Liabilities 148.0 Total Stockholders' Equity 21.7 Total Liabilities and Equity 169.7 Please work through problem explaining it.

Global Corporation

Forecasted sales = Current Net Sales x (1 + growth rate)

= $186,200,000 x (1 + 0.09) = $186,200,000 x 1.09 = $202,958,000

Forecasted Net Income = $1,745,438.80 (202,958,000 x 0.86%)

Forecasted Dividend payout = $872,719.40 ($1,745,438.80 x 50%)

Forecasted Retained Earnings = $872,719.40 = $0.87 million

Therefore Forecasted equity = Current Equity + Forecasted Retained Earnings = $22.6 ($21.7 + $0.87)

Total Liabilities                                148.0

Total Stockholders' Equity               21.7

Total Liabilities and Equity            169.7

b) The percent of sales method enables the calculation of the relationship between sales and the line figures in the income statement.  Our interest for this question, is the Retained Earnings which we use to calculate the Stockholders' Equity forecasted balance.  The retained earnings percentage to sales = Retained Earnings as given divided by the net sales figure, and then multiplied by 100.

c) To forecast the sales, we use the growth rate of 9%.  This is equal to the current sales x 1.09.  Based on this sales, it becomes possible to forecast the Retained Earnings, having established the percentage of Retained Earnings to Sales, using the percent of sales method.  We apply the established percentage of Retained Earnings to the Sales figure, to get the Retained Earnings for the forecasted period.  This is then added to the Stockholders' Equity to get the forecasted stockholders' equity.

sound is invisible, but sometimes we can feel it. when a kettle-drum is thumped with a stick that time the tight drum skin moving up and down very quickly for some time and then it pumped sound waves into the air. loudspeakers also work in a similar manner.

components of a speaker:

electromagnet

in order to translate an electrical signal into an audible sound, an electromagnet is used in looudspeakers

  suspension

suspension is used to   center the voice coil in the gap of the magnet and it exerts a restoring force to keep it there. suspension is used to limits the maximum mechanical excursion of the diaphragm and voice coil.

voice coil

voice coil is a coil of wire which is attached to the apex of a loudspeaker cone. it provides the motive force to the cone by the reaction of a magnetic field to the current passing through it.

cone

in a   loudspeaker, a   thin, semi-rigid membrane attached to the voice coil, which moves in a magnetic gap due to which it vibrates   and produced sound. it is known as diaphragm and it can also be called a cone, though not all speaker diaphragms are cone-shaped.

surround

surround is also known as front suspension. surround is used to join the cone to the chassis. together with the suspension it controls the cone excursion, and it is also used to   determine how energy which is   travelling through the cone is absorbed, and how the speaker limits when it reaches the ends of its travel.

dustcap

dustcap is used to protect the voice coil from dust and dirt. it is a part of the cone.

how speaker work

the outer part of the cone is fastened to the outer part of the loudspeaker's circular metal rim. the inner part is fixed to   voice coil that sits just in front of a permanent magnet . when loudspeaker is hooked up to a stereo, electrical signals feed through the speaker cables into the coil. it will convert the coil into an electromagnet magnet . when electricity flows back and forth in the cables, the electromagnet either repels or attract the permanent magnet. this moves the coil back and forth, and it pull and push the loudspeaker cone. like a drum skin vibrating back and forth, the moving cone pumps sounds out into the air.in this way loudspeakers works.
