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%.
