Gomer Paper Corporation Has the Following Balance Sheet Accounts Immediately

Gomer Paper Corporation has the following balance sheet accounts immediately preceding an investing and financing decision:
$\begin{array}{lr}\text { Current assets } & \$ 67,000 \\\text { Long-lived assets } & 73,500 \\\text { Current liabilities } & 28,500 \\\text { Long-term liabilities } & 22,000 \\\text { Contributed capital } & 60,000 \\\text { Retained earnings } & 30,000\end{array}$

A long-term debt covenant specifies that Gomer Paper's debt/equity ratio cannot be greater than 1.0 and its current ratio must be at least 2.0.
Gomer Paper is going to invest $70,000 in new equipment. It is considering two methods of financing the investment. It can use $10,000 of its own money and obtain $60,000 from the issue of long-term debt. Alternatively, Gomer Paper can use $15,000 of its own money and obtain the remaining financing from the issue of stock.
A. Recalculate the balance sheet amounts given above for each of the two financing alternatives immediately after financing is achieved and the investment is undertaken.
B. Use numerical calculations to determine if the debt covenants are respected under each of the two financing alternatives. If the covenants are broken for each alternative, suggest financing options that Gomer Paper might use to finance the $70,000 investment in equipment.
