Question

Delhi, Inc., seeks your assistance in developing cash and other budget information for August, September, and October. At July 31, the company had cash of $12,000, accounts receivable of $864,000, inventories of $609,700, and accounts payable of $159,165. The budget is to be based on the following assumptions.

Each month’s sales are billed on the last day of the month.

Customers are allowed a 3 percent discount if payment is made within 10 days after the billing date. Receivables are recorded in the accounts at their gross amounts (not net of discounts).

The billings are collected as follows: 60 percent within the discount period, 25 percent by the end of the month, and 9 percent by the end of the following month. Six percent is uncollectible.

Purchase data are as follows.

Of all purchases of merchandise and selling, general, and administrative expenses, 57 percent is paid in the month purchased and the remainder in the following month.

The number of units in each month’s ending inventory equals 130 percent of the next month’s units of sales.

The cost of each unit of inventory is $10.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses, of which $4,000 is depreciation, equal 15 percent of the current month’s sales.

Actual and projected sales follow:

Explanation / Answer

Answer: a)

Budgeted ending inventory for august = 45300*1.3 = 58890

Cost of ending inventory = 58890*$10 = 588900

Cost of goods sold in august = 46900*$10 = 469000

Required available inventory = 588900+469000 = 1057900

Budgeted beginning inventory for august = 46900*1.3= 60970

cost of beginning inventory = 60970*$10 = 609700

Required purchases in dollars for august = 1057900-609700= $448200

Answer: b)

Budgeted ending inventory for september = 47500*1.3 = 61750

Cost of ending inventory = 61750*$10 = 617500

Cost of goods sold in september = 45300*$10 = 453000

Required available inventory = 617500+453000 = 1070500

Budgeted beginning inventory for september = 45300*1.3= 58890

cost of beginning inventory = 58890*$10 = 588900

Required purchases in dollars for september = 1070500-588900= $481600

Answer:c)

Discount period (july paid in august) = 739500*60% = 443700

Amount with discount = [443700 - (443700*3%)] = 430389

End of month (july paid in august) = 739500*25% = 184875

End of next month (june paid in august) = 720000*9% = 64800

Total collectible for august = $680064

Answer: d)

Merchandise payment for august purchases = 448200*0.43 = 192726

Selling, general and administrative expenses for august = (703,500*0.15) - 4000 of dep. = 101525

Payment made for Selling, general and administrative expenses for august = 101525*0.43 = 43656

Merchandise payment for september purchases = 481600*0.57 = 274512

Selling, general and administrative expenses for september = (679,500*0.15) - 4000 of dep. = 97925

Payment made for Selling, general and administrative expenses for september = 97925*0.57 = 55817

Total budgeted cash disbursement in september = 192726+43656+274512+55817 = $566711
