Miller Inc. has requested a new line of credit to address the
seasonality of revenues. The request is for an $12,500,000 demand
loan and resulted in your lender requiring a working capital
analysis. You have been assigned the task of calculating the
expected line of credit requirement based on the information
provided below. The lender has suggested a covenant which limits
the current ratio including any demand bank loan to no worse than a
2:1. Given this is a future oriented analysis - use 360 days as a
year. Your task: a) Prepare a schedule of working capital that
determines what the maximum loan amount is which meets a Current
Ratio of 2:1 b) If the maximum loan was not allowed to exceed 75%
of Accounts Receivable and 25% of Inventory determined in a) above
- is the loan request above covered with adequate security? Show
calculation and decision. c) If the loan limit is below the
$12,500,000 requested above, what would the accounts payable days
to pay be revised to reach the proposed limit.

45 days to collect
