UglyDoll Custom Plushies Ltd. has $15 million in credit sales per year and on average they are outstanding for 75 days. Each giant custom plushie sells for $1,000 and results in a 10% contribution margin. Receivables are financed via a line of credit at a 12% interest rate. Bad debts total $350,000 annually. The accounting department has a new plan by which it estimates it can eliminate half of the bad debts and reduce the average collection period to 45 days if it is permitted to hire new collections specialists at a cost $170,000 per year. The new plan would result in 2% lost sales. Consider both the existing and the new credit policy and determine if UglyDoll Custom Plushies would be better off with new plan and if so, by how much?
