SALES: a. All Sales are credit sales. b. In 2023, your expanded operations enable Production and Sales to double your 2022 sales (due to selling more windows to the commercial builders and increasing the sale price per window). c. Quantity of windows sold is expected to increase 25\% every year from 2024 on. d. Due to inflation and demand, at the start of 2024 you increase your selling price per window by 9%. COGS: Compute your 2022 cOGS as a Percent of Sales ratio, and then subtract 10% because you'll be able to get volume discounts for your materials now that you've expanded.

Use a 3-year average Percent of Sales to forecast variable S\&A expenses. (HINT: Recoll that since S\&A is an expense, and therefore negative, to remove fixed expenses, you must ADD theml) All SRA expenses are variable expenses EXCEPT for the following 2 fixed costs: 1.

Because of this, use 36% as your effective tax rate. (NOTE: If the taxes shown for 2020-2022 seem high, it's because you had income from another job that threw your LLC income into a slightly higher tax bracket. However, you'll quit that job IF the sharks fund youl) SHARES: Issued 72,000 \$1-par shares to the sharks for a 48% ownership stake. CASH: Increases to $50,000 in 2023 and stays at that level.
