Explanation / Answer

4.

Answer = $306,000

In $

December sales ($320,000 * 75%)

240,000

November ($300,000 * 22%)

66,000

Total

306,000

Total Collection in the month of December = $306,000

5.

Answer = $240,160

It is mentioned that the company purchases 80% of COGS of current month in previous month and it is on account and payment is made next month i.e. current month.

And remaining 20% in the next month.

COGS of November = $300,000*76% = $228,000

COGS of December = $320,000*76% = $243,200

November payment made in December = $228,000*20% = $45,600

December payment made in December = $243,200*80% = $194,560

Total payment done in December = $240,160 ($45,600 + $194,560)

In $

December sales ($320,000 * 75%)

240,000

November ($300,000 * 22%)

66,000

Total

306,000
