Part1. CASE PROBLEM

Read the following case, analyze interpret and apply the necessary corporate decisions in solving the given below :

Willey, a recent graduate of the University of Technology with four years of banking experience, was recently brought in as assistant to the chairman of the board of Marvel Industries, a manufacturer of electronic goods. The company doubled its plant capacity, opened new sales offices outside its home territory, and launched an expensive advertising campaign. Marvels results were not satisfactory, to put it mildly. Its board of directors, which consisted of its president and vice-president plus its major stockholders (who were all local business people), was most upset when directors learned how the expansion was going. Suppliers were being paid late and were unhappy, and the bank was complaining about the deteriorating situation and threatening to cut off credit. As a result, Sedrick, Marvels president, was informed that changes would have to be made, and quickly, or he would be fired. Also, at the boards insistence, Willey was brought in and given the job of assistant to Faisal, a retired banker who was Marvels chairman and largest stockholder. Faisal agreed to give up a few of his surfing days and to help nurse the company back to health, with Willeys help. Willey began by gathering financial statements and other data. Assume that you are Willeys assistant, and you must help him answer the following questions for Marvel.
