Answer:

External financing need (EFN) = -$1,908

Explanation:

Projected total assets = $48,900 (1.04)

Projected total assets = $50,856

Projected current liabilities = ($21,750 −18,100) (1.04)

Projected current liabilities = $3,796

Projected owners' equity = $27,150 + [($5,500 −1,925) (1.04)]

Projected owners' equity = $30,868

EFN = $50,856 −3,796 −18,100 −30,868

EFN = −$1,908
