Explanation / Answer

Solution:

Number of units sold in December 20x0:

Account Receivable on 31 december 20x0= $126000

As given 70% of month sale are collected in following month.

Therefore Sales made in December 20x0 = $126000 / 70% = $180000

No. of units sold in December 20x0 = Sales / Price per unit = $180000/$25 = 7200 units

Sales revenue for March 20x1

Expected Sales units in march 20x1= 8500

Sale price per unit = $25

Sales Revenue in march 20x1= 8500 * $25 = $212500

Total sales revenue to be reported on Badlands’ budgeted income statement for the first quarter of 20x1.

January Sales = $87000 +$133000 = $220000

February sales = $75000 / 30% = $250000

March Sales = $212500

Sales Revenue For First Quarter of 20x1 = $220000 +$250000+ $212500 = $682500

Accounts receivable balance to be reported on the March 31, 20x1, budgeted balance sheet:

Account Receivable balance on March 31, 20x1 = 70% of March Sales = $212500 * 70% = $148750

Number of units in the December 31, 20x0, finished-goods inventory

Finished goods inventory = 30% of following month sales

Finished goods inventory at December 31, 20x0 = January sales units * 30%

= ($220000 / $25) * 30% = 8800 * 30% = 2640 units

Number of units of finished goods to be manufactured in January 20x1:

Number of units in December 31, 20x0 (opening Finished goods inventory) = 2640units

Number of units in January 31, 20x1 (Closing Finished goods inventory) = 30% of February sales units

= ($250000/25) * 30% = 3000 units

January Sales units = January Sales / Price per Unit = $220000 / $25 = 8800 units

Number of units of finished goods to be manufactured in January 20x1 = Sales of January+Closing Inventory- Opening Inventory

= 8800 + 3000 - 2640 = 9160 units

Financing required in January, if any, to maintain the firm’s minimum cash balance:

Opening cash Balance = $23600

Cash receipts during January 20x1 = $126000 + $87000 = $213000

Budgeted Cash Payments during January 20x1 = $220000

Cash Balance at January 31, 20x1 (at end of January) = Opening Cash Balnce + Cash receipts - Cash Payments

=$23600 + $213000 - $220000 = $16600

Financing Required in January, 20x1 = Minimum Cash Balance required - Cash Balance at the end of January

= $20000 - $16600 = $3400
