An analysis of the Harvard Business School case study, “Jones Electrical Distribution” by Thomas R. Piper and Jeffrey DeVolder, the paper assesses the difference between income statement, profit and cash flow profile and the resulting capital requirements. It also shows the relationship between sustainable growth rate, capital intensity and profitability. The study examines the rationale for increasing bank borrowing against the option of equity injections. The paper outlines the practice of ration analysis, financial forecasting and evaluating financing alternatives and highlights the difference between income statement profit and cash flow profile and resulting capital requirements in order to understand the relationship between sustainable growth rate, capital intensity and profitability. Developing financial projections under different profitability and net working capital scenarios is discussed.
