Question:

Growth and Financing Mr. Miyagi is very excited because sales for his nursery and plant company are expected to double from $600,000 to $1,200,000 next year. Mr. Miyagi notes that net assets (Assets Liabilities) will remain at 50 percent of sales. His firm will enjoy an 8 percent return on total sales. He will start the year with $120,000 in the bank and is bragging about the Jaguar and luxury townhouse he will buy. Does his optimistic outlook for his cash position appear to be correct? Compute his likely cash balance or deficit for the end of the year. Start with beginning cash and subtract the asset buildup (equal to 50 percent of the sales increase) and add in profit.

During January, the company produced 850 units at a cost of $25 per unit. Assuming that Wolfson Corporation sold 800 units in January, what was the cost of goods sold? (Assume FIFO inventory accounting.)

From July 1 to December 1, Convex produced 15,000 units. These units had a material cost of $10 per unit. The costs for labor and overhead were the same. Convex uses FIFO inventory accounting. Assuming that Convex sold 17,000 units during the last six months of the year at $20 each, what would gross profit be? What is the value of ending inventory?

Question 6:

#3-6 Cash Budget Graham Potato Company has projected sales of $12,000 in September, $15,000 in October, $22,000 in November, and $18,000 in December. Of the company's sales, 30 percent are paid for by cash and 70 percent are sold on credit. Experience shows that 40 percent of accounts receivable are paid in the month after the sale, while the remaining 60 percent are paid two months after. Determine collections for November and December. Also assume Graham's cash payments for November and December are $18,500 and $11,000, respectively. The beginning cash balance in November is $5,000, which is the desired minimum balance. Prepare a cash budget with borrowing needed or repayments for November and December. (You will need to prepare a cash receipts schedule first.)
