Cute Camel Woodcraft Company's income statement reports data for its 1st year of operation. The Firm's CEO would like sales to increase by 25% next year. Cute Camel is able to achieve this level of increased sales, but its interest costs increase from 10% to 15% of earnings before interest & taxes (EBIT). The company's operating costs (excluding depreciation & amortization) remain at 65% of net sales, & its depreciation & amortization expenses remain constant from year to year. The company's tax rate remains constant at 40% of its pre-tax income or earnings before taxes (EBT). In year 2, Cute Camel expects to pay $300,000 & $1,824,525 of preferred & common stock dividends, respectively. Complete the Year 2 income statement data & then answer the questions that follow.
