a. Suppose 2014 sales are projected to increase by 15% over 2013 sales. Use the

forecasted financial statement method to forecast a balance sheet and income

statement for December 31, 2014. The interest rate on all debt is 10%, and cash

earns no interest income. Assume that all additional debt in the form of a line of

credit is added at the end of the year, which means that you should base the

forecasted interest expense on the balance of debt at the beginning of the year. Use

the forecasted income statement to determine the addition to retained earnings.

Assume that the company was operating at full capacity in 2013, that it cannot sell

off any of its fixed assets, and that any required financing will be borrowed as

notes payable. Also, assume that assets, spontaneous liabilities, and operating costs

are expected to increase by the same percentage as sales. Determine the additional

funds needed.

b. What is the resulting total forecasted amount of the line of credit?

I'm having difficulties figuring out how you determine what the input values are. As you answer, can you please alos explain how you arrived at the input amounts?
