Cost of goods sold (or cost of goods to be sold) is 75% of sales.

equal to 30% of the next months dollar amount of cost of goods (to be) sold.

The company pays for 50% of its merchandise purchases in the month of the purchase and

the remaining 50% in the month following the month of purchase.

minimum monthly ending cash balance of $50,000. Currently, JC has access to a

revolving line-of-credit from another lender for $150,000 (none of which has been used as

of June 30, 2021, as shown in the balance sheet at this date). The monthly line of credit

interest rate is 2.5%. Any required borrowing is assumed to occur at the start of the month

in which said borrowing is needed. Principal repayments on the line of credit are made at

the end of the month with any cash funds that JC has that exceed the minimum required

balance that month. Interest is charged to JC by the lender based on the principal amount

owing (cumulated amount borrowed) at the end of the month. The interest on the principal

amount owing on the line of credit at the end of a month is accrued in JCs books at the

end of that month and is paid by JC the following month
