Question:
Cruises, Inc. has budgeted sales revenues as follows:
June | July | August | |
---|---|---|---|
Credit sales | $135,000 | $125,000 | $90,000 |
Cash sales | 90,000 | 255,000 | 195,000 |
Total sales | $225,000 | $380,000 | $285,000 |
Past experience indicates that 60% of the credit sales will be collected in the month of sale and the remaining 40% will be collected in the following month.
Purchases of inventory are all on credit and 50% is paid in the month of purchase and 50% in the month following purchase.
Budgeted inventory purchases are:
June | $300,000 |
July | 240,000 |
August | 105,000 |
Other cash disbursements budgeted:
(a) | selling and administrative expenses of $58,000 each month |
(b) | dividends of $125,000 will be paid in July, and |
(c) | purchase of equipment in August for $45,000 cash |
The company wishes to maintain a minimum cash balance of $65,000 at the end of each month.
The company borrows from the bank at 7.75% interest if necessary to maintain the minimum cash balance. Borrowed money is repaid in months when there is an excess cash balance. The beginning cash balance on July 1 was $70,000. Assume the borrowed money in this case is for one month.
Required:
1. Prepare a cash budget for the months of July and August.
2. Prepare separate schedules for expected collections from customers and expected payments for purchase of inventory.
