    Sales increase
    Pierce Furnishings generated $4 million in sales during 2011, and its year-end total assets were $2.6 million. Also, at year-end 2011, current liabilities were $500,000, consisting of $200,000 of notes payable, $200,000 of accounts payable, and $100,000 of accrued liabilities. Looking ahead to 2012, the company estimates that its assets must increase by $0.65 for every $1.00 increase in sales. Pierce's profit margin is 3%, and its retention ratio is 35%.
