2.)    The Robinson Company from the problem above had net sales of $1,200,000 in 2010 and$1,300,000 in 2011.

a)      Determine the receivable turnover in each year

b)      Calculate the average collection period for each year.

c)      Based on the receivables turnover for 2010, estimate the investment in receivables if net sales were $1,300,000 in 2011. d) How much of a change in the 2011 receivables occurred? 3.) Suppose the Robinson Company had a cost of goods sold of$1,000,000 in 2010 and $1,200,000 in 2011. a) Calculate the inventory turnover for each year. Comment on your findings. b) What would have been the amount of inventories in 2011 if the 2010 turnover ratio had been maintained? 4.)

Assume that you have been offered cash discounts on merchandise that can be purchased from either of two suppliers. Supplier A offers trade credit terms of 3/20, net 70, while supplier B offers 4/15, net 80. What is the approximate effective cost of missing the cash discounts from each supplier? If you could not take advantage of either cash discount offer, which supplier would you select? 6.) Bank A offers a loan with a 10 percent stated annual rate and a 10 percent compensating balance. You wish to obtain$250,000 in a six month loan.
