a. In percentage of sales method we first calculate the percentage increase in sales. Using this increase we forecast the increase in assets, spontaneous liabilities and retained earnings.
Additional financing = Increase in assets - increase in spontaneous liabilities - retained earnings
The sales increase from 4million to 6 million = $2 million
The percentage increase in sales is 2/4=50%
The increase in total assets is 2,300,000X50%=1,150,000
Increase in spontaneous liabilities = 600,000X50%=300,000
Increase in retained earnings = 400,000-50,000=350,000
Additional financing needed = 1,150,000-300,000-350,000=$500,000
To make the pro-forma balance sheet we calculate the percentage of sales of all assets and spontaneous liability. We apply this percentage to the new level of sales.
For example cash = 200,000/4,000,000=5% of sales
New level of cash =6,000,000X5%=300,000
We make the pro-forma balance sheet
