Percentage of Sales Approach
Income Statement
•
Costs may vary directly with sales - if this is the case,
then the profit margin is constant
•
Depreciation and interest expense may not vary
directly with sales – if this is the case, then the profit
margin is not constant
4-20
Percentage of Sales Approach
Income Statement
•
Dividends are a management decision and generally
do not vary directly with sales – this influences
additions to retained earnings

Percentage of Sales Approach
Balance Sheet
• Initially assume all assets, including fixed, vary
directly with sales
• Accounts payable will also normally vary
directly with sales
4-23
Percentage of Sales Approach
Balance Sheet
•
Notes payable, long-term debt and equity
generally do not vary directly with sales
because they depend on management
decisions about capital structure
•
The change in the retained earnings portion of
equity will come from the dividend decision
