The capital intensity ratio is measured as A*/S 0. This firms capital
intensity ratio is higher than that of the firm in Problem 17-1;
therefore, this firm is more capital intensive--it would require a large
increase in total assets to support the increase in sales.
17-3 AFN = (0.6)($1,000,000) - (0.1)($1,000,000) - 0.05($6,000,000)(1)
= $600,000 - $100,000 - $300,000
= $200,000.
Under this scenario the company would have a higher level of retained
earnings, which would reduce the amount of additional funds needed.
17-5 Sales = $5,000,000,000; FA = $1,700,000,000; FA are operated at 90%
capacity.
a. Full capacity sales = $5,000,000,000/0.90 = $5,555,555,556.
b. Target FA/S ratio = $1,700,000,000/$5,555,555,556 = 30.6%.
c. Sales increase 12%; FA = ?
S1 = $5,000,000,000 1.12 = $5,600,000,000.
No increase in FA up to $5,555,555,556.
FA = 0.306 ($5,600,000,000 - $5,555,555,556)
= 0.306 ($44,444,444)
= $13,600,000.
