1 – Why does BL need to borrow money to support its profitable business? Draw up a Fund Flow Statement, ie., Funding and Uses

a – Funding would include Bank Borrowing, Trade Credit, Retained Earnings, Cash, Accrued    Expenses

b – Uses would include Inventories, A/R, Buyout, Reduction in debt, increase in fixed assets /    accounts

2 – Will the bank credit of $465,000 be sufficient to fully meet the company’s requirements at least over the next year? Why or why not? What does it depend on?

3 – How attractive is it for BL to take the trade discount? How much do you really save from taking advantage of it per year?
