Question:
After Dan's analysis of East Coast Yachts' cash flow (at the end of our previous chapter), Larissa approached Dan about the company's performance and future growth plans. First Larissa wants to find out how East Coast Yachts is performing relative to its peers. Additionally, she wants to find out the future financing necessary to fund the company's growth. In the past, East Coat Yachts experienced difficulty in financing its growth plan, in part because of poor planning. In fact, the company had to turn down several large jobs because its facilities were unable to handle the additional demand. Larissa hoped that Dan would be able to estimate the amount of capital the company would have to raise next year so that East Coat Yachts would be better prepared to funds its expansion plans.
To get Dan started with his analyses, Larissa provided the following financial statements. Dan then gathered the industry ratios for the yacht manufacturing industry.
