Explanation / Answer
1) Calculation of budgeted cash receipts for each month (Amounts in $)
Total cash receipts for three months = $25,430+$36,500+$40,705 = $102,635
Calculation of Budgeted Cash Payments (Amounts in $)
Total Cash Payments for three months = $7,450+$14,000+$15,800 = $37,250
2) Cash Balance on August 31 = Beg bal June 1+Total Cash Receipts-Total Cash Payments
= $15,400+$102,635-$37,250 = $80,785
Supplies Inventory = 25% of August Purchases
= 25%*$13,200 = $3,300
Accounts Receivable Balance = 20% of August Sales+5% of July Sales
= ($41,900*20%)+($39,200*5%)
= $8,380+$1,960 = $10,340
Accounts Payable = 50% of August Purchases
= $13,200*50% = $6,600
