- Kitchen Enterprises is evaluating a proposal to lengthen its credit period from 30 to 45 days. All customers will continue to pay on the net date. Currently, credit sales are $650,000 and variable costs are $455,000. The selling price is $20 per unit. The proposal is expected to lead to credit sales of $710,000. However, bad debts are expected to increase from 1% to 2% of sales. The required rate of return on equal-risk investments is 16.5%. (Note: Assume a 365-day year.) 1) Calculate the additional profit contribution from sales if the proposal is implemented. 2) Calculate the cost of the marginal bad debts. 3) Should the proposal be implemented?

Assume that the price of Tara’s products is $60 per unit and that the variable costs are $55 per unit. The firm is considering an accounts receivable change that will result in a 20% increase in sales and a 20% increase in the average collection period. No change in bad debts is expected.

- Ingraham Inc. currently has $500,000 in accounts receivable, and its days sales outstanding (DSO) is 44 days. It wants to reduce its DSO to 20 days by pressuring more of its customers to pay their bills on time. If this policy is adopted, the company's average sales will fall by 10%. What will be the level of accounts receivable following the change? Assume a 365-day year. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest centJames Inc. currently has P750,000 in accounts receivable, and its day sales outstanding (DSO) is 55 days. It wants to reduce its DSO to 35 days by pressuring more of its customers to pay their bills on time. If this policy is adopted, the company's average sales will fall by 15%. What will be the level of accounts receivable following the change? Assume a 365-day year.Kelly expects its sales to be $20 million this year under its current credit policy. The present terms are net 30; the days dales outstanding (DSO) is 65 days; and the bad debt loss percentage is 4%. Also, Kelly’s cost of capital is 14%, and its variable costs total 62% of sales. Since Kelly wants to improve its profitability, a proposal has been made to offer a 2 percent discount for payment within 10 days; that is, change the credit terms to 2/10, net 30. It is predicted that sales would increase by $600,000, and that 55 percent of all customers would take the discount. The new DSO would be 30 days, and the bad debt loss percentage on all sales would fall to 2 percent. (Hint, use incremental approach table) What are the incremental pre-tax profits from this proposal?
