A firm has Sales of $25,000,000, total assets of $22,000,000, current assets of $8,000,000, spontaneous liabilities of $5,000,000, a profit margin of 5 percent, a tax rate of 40%, and a dividend payout rate of 20 percent. Sales are expected to increase to $28,000,000 for the coming year, and the firm will need to increase its fixed assets at this level of sales (that is, fixed assets will increase proportionately with sales). Given this information, and using the equation approach, determine the additional funds needed for the coming year.

Sambonoza Enterprises projects its sales next year to be $4 million and expects to earn 5 percent of that amount after taxes. The firm is currently in the process of projecting its financing needs and has made the following assumptions (projections): 1. Current assets will equal 20 percent of sales, and fixed assets will remain at their current level of $1 million. 2.

The firm has short-term payables and trade credit that normally equal 10 percent of sales, and it has no long- term debt outstanding. What are Sambonoza's financing requirements (i.e., total assets) and discretionary financing needs (DFN) for the coming year?

Answer in millions, rounded to one decimal place
