\nQUESTION 1: FINANCING
\nBackground Information Needed to Answer Question #1:
\nReview Shaun’s criteria below to determine the best financing option to expand his business.
\nSHAUN\u2019S CRITERIA
\nHi Team,
\nI wanted to provide you some guidelines as you determine how we\u2019ll finance our expansion. Please give this careful consideration, as we need to get this right.
\n1.\tI estimate we\u2019ll need $150,000 to increase capacity in order to stock the five additional pop-up stands.
\n2.\tWe\u2019ll need to make sure we have additional funds available to increase our marketing efforts to stimulate demand.
\n3.\tCash flow is going to be tight, so I\u2019d like to minimize interest payments.
\n4.\tI\u2019d like to maintain or increase our profit margins.
\n5.\tSince I don\u2019t have a lot of experience with big discount retailers, I\u2019d like to add a thought partner with experience in this channel.
\n6.\tIf we\u2019re successful over the next two years, we\u2019ll likely seek additional capital to expand into more stores, so I\u2019d like to do all we can now to enhance our credibility.
\n7.\tWe need to move on this quickly, so I\u2019d like an answer by the end of the week.
\n-Shaun
\nFINANCING OPTIONS
\nAs we have learned, there are pros and cons to all financing methods. Which of the three financing methods would be the best fit based on Shaun’s criteria above?

\nSecure a loan of $150,000 at a 10% annual interest rate, to be repaid over 7 years.
\nOption 3: Debt + Self-Financing
\nSecure a loan of $100,000 at a 7% annual interest rate, to be repaid over 7 years, and self-finance the remaining $50,000.<\/p>\n
