Answer:
$2,896 is needed
Explanation:
external financing needed = net income - working capital needs - capital expenditures + retained earnings
- net income = $1,560 x 1.2 = $1,872
- working capital needs = ($4,700 x 1.2) - ($860 x 1.2) = $5,640 - $1,032 = $4,608
- capital expenditures = fixed assets x 20% = $940
- retained earnings = $1,560 x 50% = $780
external financing needed = $1,872 - $4,608 - $940 + $780 = -$2,896

Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. Holding period return would be
= Income + (End of Period Value - Initial Value) ÷ Initial Value
= 0 +($2,178 - $1,902) ÷ $1,902
= 0 + $276 ÷ $1,902
= 14.51%
b. The annual percentage rate is
For 3 months, the rate is 14.51%
Now
For 12 months, it is
= 14.51% ÷ 3 × 12
= 14.51 % × 4
= 58.04%
c. The effective annual rate is
= ( 1 + r ÷ m)^m - 1
= (1 + 58.04% ÷ 4)^4 - 1
= (1 + 0.5804 ÷ 4)^4 - 1
= (1 + 0.1451)^4 - 1
= (1.1451)^4 - 1
= 1.719387079 - 1
= 0.719387079 or 71.94%
