1. The FINC 5000 Associates Corporation (FAC) has begun selling a new product and they want you to help them with next year’s pro forma financial statements. Using the worksheet below, complete the company’s forecast.

Assumptions:

To begin with, FAC is sure sales will grow 20% next year. Assume that is true. Then assume that COGS, Current Assets, and Current Liabilities all vary directly with Sales (that means if sales grows a certain percentage, then the account in question will grow by that same percentage). Assume that fixed expenses will remain unchanged and that $1500 worth of new Fixed Assets will be obtained next year. Lastly, the current dividend policy will be continued next year.
