DYL PICKLE
CURRENT SITUATION FOR DYL PICKLE COMPANY:
So = Current sales = $15 million.
V = Variable costs as a % of sales = 70% = 0.7.
1 – V = Contribution margin = 30% = 0.3.
k = Cost of capital invested in receivables = 15% = 0.15.
ACPo = Average collection period = 30 days. (Note: the credit period is 25 days, i.e., net 25.)
Bo = Bad debt loss percentage = 3% = 0.03.
Do = Discount percentage = 0%.
DYL IS ANALYZING THESE POTENTIAL CREDIT POLICY CHANGES:
1. Relax credit standards. Expected effects:
DS = Incremental sales – $1 million
Bn = Bad debt losses on new sales (only) = %5
ACPn = ACP on new sales (only) = 45 days
2. As alternative to the above changes, lengthen credit period such that ACP = 45 days. DS = $1 million; Bn = 5% on DS. (Bo = 3% on So.)
3. Shorten credit period to 20 days. DS = -$1 million. Bo will decline from 3% to 2% (on all sales).
4. Allow a 2% discount for payment within 10 days (i.e., 2/10, net 30). 40% of customers will take discounts; Bo will decline to 2% (on all sales); and DS = $1 million.
5. Toughen up on collection policy. New ACP will be 25 days. DS = -$1 million. Bo will go from 3% to 1%.
