Respuesta :

Answer:

July = $237,600

August = $238,400

Explanation:

Note that credit sales account for only 80% of total sales, the remainder should be considered as cash receipts in the month of sale. Cash receipts for July are 20% of July total sales, plus 25% of July credit sales, plus 55% of June credit sales, and 20% of May credit sales:

[tex]J = 0.20*280,000+0.8*(0.25*280,000+0.55*220,000+0.20*180,000)\\J= \$237,600[/tex]

Cash receipts for August are 20% of August total sales, plus 25% of August credit sales, plus 55% of July credit sales, and 20% of June credit sales:

[tex]A = 0.20*200,000+0.8*(0.25*200,000+0.55*280,000+0.20*220,000)\\A= \$238,400[/tex]

Budgeted cash receipts are:

July = $237,600

August = $238,400
