Explanation / Answer

Note:

a. With a 45-day collection period, one-half of the quarter's sales will be collected during the quarter since a quarter has 90 days while the balance one-half will be in ending receivables collected in the next quarter.

Q1 Cash collections: $3690 + ($7890/2) = $7635

Q1 Ending receivables: $7890/2 = $3945

Similarly calculated for other quarters.

b. With a 60-day collection period, one-third of the quarter's sales will be collected during the quarter while two-thirds will be in ending receivables collected in the next quarter.

Q1 Cash collections: $3690 + ($7890/3) = $6320

Q1 Ending receivables: $7890 x 2/3 = $5260

Similarly calculated for other quarters.

c. With a 30-day collection period, two-third of the quarter's sales will be collected during the quarter while one-thirds will be in ending receivables collected in the next quarter.

Q1 Cash collections: $3690 + ($7890 x 2/3) = $8950

Q1 Ending receivables: $7890 x 1/3 = $2630

Similarly calculated for other quarters.

Ending receivables of Q1 will be beginning receivables of Q2 and so forth.
