Telford Engineers Limited, a medium-sized manufacturer of automobile components, has decided to modernize its factory by incorporating a number of robots. These will cost $20 million and will reduce operating costs by $6 million a year for their estimated useful life of 10 years starting next year (Year 10). To finance this plan the business can raise $20 million by either:
issuing 20 million common shares at $1 each, or issuing long-term bonds at 14% interest a year, with capital repayments of $3 million a year commencing at the end of Year 11.

Assumptions for Year 10: the corporate tax rate is 30%;? sales revenue and operating profit will remain unchanged except for the $6 million cost savings; and? Telford Engineers will pay the same dividend per share in Year 10 and in Year 9.
Prepare, for each financing arrangement, Telford Engineers' pro forma income statement including the addition to retained earnings for the year ending December 31, Year 10, and the pro forma long-term debt and shareholders' equity portion of the balance sheet only on that date.
