Distribution Method ForecastExampleA company has used regression analysis to estimate the proportion of dollars that will clear on a given business day. It has determined that this proportion depends on the number of business days since the checks were distributed. The estimated proportions are given below.

2 38%

Pro-Forma Financial Statements
Medium and long-term forecasting
Percentage-of-sales method
Involves projecting financial
statements based on the historical
relationship between sales and
balance sheet accounts that tend to
change in value along with sales
Cash, A/R, inventory and A/P are the
most important accounts, followed by
fixed assets
© 2017 - The Treasury Academy, Inc. - All Rights Reserved 8
Three Steps to the Percentage-of-Sale Method
1. Forecast the income statement and balance sheet based on the relationships between revenues and balance sheet items
2. Calculate projected ending cash balance by determining how the forecasted income statement and balance sheet values impact cash
3. Compare the projected ending cash balance with the company’s target cash balance and adjust the pro-format statement to show the source of funding for a cash shortfall or the investment of a cash surplus

Pro-Forma Forecast -Assumptions Sales will increase by 10% to $2,200 in the year 2017
Costs of goods sold, selling and administrative expenses, non-cash current assets (receivables and inventory), and payables are a constant percentage of sales
Cash balance is derived from the cash flow statement
Additional fixed assets in the amount of $100 will be purchased
Depreciation will be $50
Notes will be reduced to $100 at the beginning of the year
Dividends will be $24

All the projected account balances except cash are calculated based on the given assumptions. The ending cash balance is determined by evaluating the impact on cash of the income statement activity and balance sheet changes and adjusting the beginning cash balance accordingly.

Pro-Forma: Statement of Cash Flows
© 2017 - The Treasury Academy, Inc. - All Rights Reserved 13
If the projected ending cash balance is less than the company’s established target balance, the shortfall must be funded through taking on additional debt, issuing equity of selling assets. Conversely, if the projected cash balance exceeds the target, the surplus may be invested in additional assets, used to reduce debt and/or distributed to shareholders.
In the above example, if the target cash balance were $110, then $15 in additional cash would need to be raised. If this were accomplished though an increase in notes payables, then the projected balance sheet would appear as before, except that cash would be $110 and notes payable would be $115.

The exponential smoothing forecast begins with the Day 6 Forecast of $789,500 based on the moving average forecast.
Then, the Day 7 forecast using exponential smoothing is:F7 = 0.40(748,500) + (1 – 0.40)(789,500) = $773,100
This results in a forecast error of: $1,009,000 – $773,100 = $235,900

Wire vs. ACH Concentration
A company can concentrate funds using either a wire or an ACH transfer. The all-in cost for a wire transfer is $12.00 and the cost of an ACH transfer is $0.50. What is the approximate (to the nearest $1000) minimum transfer amount for funds going from a collection account to the concentration account on a Friday? (Assume opp. cost of 2.5%)

Comparison of Alternatives
Without Lockbox Float Cost = $99,000
With Lockbox Scenario
◦ Float cost savings = $99,000 – $72,000 = $27,000
◦ Fixed Costs of Lockbox = $10,000
◦ Variable Costs of Lockbox = 12,000 x $0.50 = $6,000
◦ Elimination of internal processing costs
= 12,000 x $0.25 = $3,000
◦ Net Benefit = Savings minus lockbox costs
= ($27,000 + $3,000) – ($10,000 + $6,000)
= $30,000 – $16,000 = $14,000

Tax Status When computing taxable vs. tax-exempt
instruments, use the formula below
Assume a taxable security with a 4.6% yield and a tax-exempt security with a 3.2% yield (both have similar risk and maturity) – marginal tax rate is 35%

0.032Taxable Equivalent Yield = 0.0492 or 4.92%
( 0.35)
After-Tax Yield = Taxable Yield x (1 – Marginal Tax Rate)
After-Tax Yield = 4.60% x (1 – 0.35) = 2.99%
In this example – the tax-exempt security should be chosen

Yield Calculations for S-T Investments
Usually made on a simple interest basis Yield is usually a function of:◦ Cash flows received from the investment
◦ Amount paid for that investment
◦ Maturity or holding period
Different types of yield◦ Holding period yield
◦ Money market yield(360 day year basis)
◦ Bond equivalent yield(365 day year basis)

Bid quote is the price at which the dealer will BUY a T-Bill
Ask quote is the price at which the dealer will SELL a T-Bill

Annual Cost for a Line of Credit
A line of credit lender charges interest and a commitment fee on the line.
Interest is charged on the used portion of the line.
The commitment fee may be charged on the line or its unused portion.
The overall interest rate on the line is determined by the total interest paid on the line’s used portion and the amount paid per the commitment fee relative to the average used portion of the credit line over the borrowing period.
© 2017 - The Treasury Academy, Inc. - All Rights Reserved 59
Annual Cost for a Line of CreditExample: A company expects to use $1.6 M of short-
term borrowings and wants a $3 M line of credit. A lender offers LIBOR (at 0.70%) plus a risk premium of 2.50% with a commitment fee of 0.30% on the unused portion of the line. The rate on the used portion of the line is LIBOR plus 2.50%, or 3.20% (the all-in rate). All interest and fees are calculated as follows:
Part 1 of 5:
Interest Paid = Average Borrowing × All-in Rate
= $1,600,000 × .032 = $51,200
Fee on Unused Portion = Unused Portion × Commitment Fee
= $1,400,000 × 0.0030 = $4,200

The lender (a bank) requires a 10% compensating balance; the borrower must maintain a balance in its DDA (checking) account ≥ 10% of the amount borrowed on the credit line. The DDA is a zero balance account (ZBA).

Interest rates depend on many factors r = r*RF + IP + DP + LP + MP◦ Where: r*RF = Real risk-free interest rate
IP = Inflation premiumDP = Default premiumLP = Liquidity premiumMP = Maturity premium
Some observations◦ Treasuries: DP and LP = 0
◦ Both corporate and muni’s have DP and LP
◦ Most L-T bonds have some MP
◦ MP increases with issue’s time to maturity

Bond or Fixed Income Valuation Valuation of bonds or any fixed income security is
fairly easy because the cash flows and their timing is well known
Required rate on a bond issue is typically called the Yield to Maturity (YTM)
Some bonds have call provisions, and the Yield to Call (YTC) should also be computed
Another approach with callable bonds is to compute Yield to Worst (YTW), where the lowest possible yield is determined
YTW can also be used with other types of bonds to determine the impact of all potentially negative provisions (pre-payments, sinking funds, etc.)

91© 2017 - The Treasury Academy, Inc. - All Rights Reserved
Cost of Capital and Firm Value Cost of capital is the basic target number that
asset returns must exceed if the company is to create shareholder value
Capital Components and Costs◦ Primary sources of “permanent” capital are long-term
debt (bonds) and equity (common stock and retained earnings)
◦ The relevant costs ofthese sources are theirmarginal cost
◦ Be sure to use onlyafter-tax values for the costs
Typically calculated as WACC◦ Weighted Average Cost of Capital
92© 2017 – The Treasury Academy - All Rights Reserved
Cost of Debt Relevant cost is after-tax YTM
After-tax kd = Before-tax kd(1 – T)
Calculation Example – AssumeYTM of 5% and marginal tax rate of 30%:◦ After-tax kd = 5%(1 – .3) = 3.5%
In companies with complicated tax liabilities, the marginal tax rate may be difficult to estimate from standard financial statements
Though flotation costs of debt are usually low, they should be considered if they are significant

Cost of Common Equity
Two sources of common equity◦ Retained earnings during the period
◦ Issue new common stock
CAPM may be used to estimate the market’s required rate of return on equity
Flotation costs are usually not considered for retained earnings, but may be significant for new common stock issues

Common Equity Calculation Example
Assume a risk-free rate of 4.0%, a return on the stock market of 10.0% and a Beta of 1.2
In this case the cost of equity is:
