Answer:

Projected total assets = $10,318 

Projected retained earnings = $4,675.30 

Additional new debt required = $537.70

Explanation:

external financing needed = EFN = [(total assets/total sales) x ($ Δ sales)] - [(total current liabilities/total sales) x ($ Δ sales)] - [profit margin x forecasted sales in $ x (1 - dividend payout ratio)]

total assets = $9,380, projected total assets = $9,380 x 1.1 = $10,318

total sales = $7,800

$ Δ sales = $780

current liabilities = $1,550

profit margin = net income / sales = $410 / $7,800 = 0.052564

forecasted sales = $7,800 x 1.1 = $8,580

dividends payout ratio = dividends / net income = $187 / $410 = 0.4561

EFN = [($9,380/$7,800) x ($780)] - [($1,550/$7,800) x ($780)] - [0.052564 x $8,580 x (1 - 0.4561)]

EFN = $938 - $155 - $245.30 = $537.70

projected retained earnings = current retained earnings - projected net income - projected dividends = $4,430 + $451 - $205.70 = $4,675.30

Answer:

The answer is: B) Equilibrium price and quantity of oil will decrease.

Explanation:

When a company or a family installs extra insulation in their buildings or homes, then they will end up spending less money on both their electricity and heating bills. That will result in a lower demand for oil, so the price of oil will go down. As oil prices go down, the oil companies will decrease the oil supply until a new equilibrium point is reached.
