Consider the following 2017 information for your company, which began operations on January 1, 2017. (So it did not exist in 2016, and therefore had no balance sheet.)

- Number of units sold in 2017: 1,000

- Price per unit: $1,000

- Cost of goods sold for each unit: 65% of the price

- Other expenses (except depreciation): $50,000

- On January 1, the company bought $500,000 of fixed assets. You assume these assets will last 5 years

and have no salvage value (i.e., after 5 years you will need to scrap them and will not be able to sell

them for any money). You will depreciate these assets linearly over the five years.

- On January 1, the company received $200,000 as investment from its shareholders.

- On January 1, the company borrowed $400,000 from the bank at a rate of 5.0%. At the end of the

year, the company will pay the interest due on that amount only. (In other words, it will not pay

down the loan, since this is not an amortizing loan.)

- The tax rate is 20% and the company will pay its taxes at the end of the year.

- The company paid the owners $25,000 in dividends at the end of the year.
