In addition, the company had an interest expense of $74,400 and a tax rate of 25 percent. (Ignore any tax loss carryforward provisions and assume interest expense is fully deductible).

Answer:

Paying out $102,000 in cash dividends is possible

Net new long-term debt $26,100

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the net new long-term debt

Sales $772,000

Less Cost of goods sold $465,000

Gross profit $307,000

($772,000-$465,000)

Administrative and selling expenses $104,500

Depreciation expenses $150,000

Earning before interest tax $52,500

($307,000-$104,500-$150,000)

Interest expense $74,400

Profit or Loss before tax ($21,900)

($52,500-$74,400)

Less Tax 25% $0

Add Depreciation expense $150,000

Net Cash flow $128,100

(-$21,900+$150,000)

Dividend $102,000

Net new long-term debt $26,100

($128,100-$102,000)

Therefore Based on the above calculation Paying out $102,000 in CASH DIVIDENDS is possible even though the Net income is Negative, its operating cash flow is $128,100 positive which means that the company has enough cash balance to pay dividends of $102,000. The Net new long-term debt is $26,100
