Adkins Bakery uses the modified half-month convention to calculate depreciation expense in the year an asset is purchased or sold. Adkins has a calendar year accounting period and uses the straight-line method to compute depreciation expense. On March 17, 2018, Adkins acquired equipment at a cost of $220,000. The equipment has a residual value of $43,000 and an estimated useful life of 4 years. What amount of depreciation expense will be recorded for the year ending December 31, 2018
Answer:
Depreciation expense= $36,875
Explanation:
Under the straight line method of depreciation, the cost of an asset less the salvage value is spread equally over the expected useful life.
An equal amount is charged as annual depreciation over the life of the asset. The annual depreciation is calculated as follows:
Annual depreciation:
= (cost of assets - salvage value)/ Estimated useful life
Cost - 220,000
Residual value = 43,000
Estimated useful life = 4 years
Annual depreciation = (220,000- 43,000)/4 =44,250
Annual depreciation = 44,250.
Under the half-month convention, a full month depreciation is charged where an asset is first put to at the middle month of the month.
Thus March 17, 2018 to December 2018 is taken to be 10 full months
Depreciation expense = 44,250.× 10/12 = 36,875
Depreciation expense= $36,875

Explanation:
A $64,000 machine with a 6-year class life was purchased 2 years ago. The machine will now be sold for $50,000 and replaced with a new machine costing $82,000, with a 10-year class life. The new machine will not increase sales, but will decrease operating costs by $9,000 per year. Simplified straight line depreciation is employed for both machines, and the marginal corporate tax rate is 34 percent. What is the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project
Answer:
$6,779
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project
First step is to calculate the depreciation
Depreciation=[($64,000/6 years)-($82,000/10 years)
Depreciation=$10,667-$8,200
Depreciation=$2,467
Now let calculate the Incremental annual cash flow
Incremental annual cash flow ={($9,000-$2,467)
-[($9,000-$2,467)*34%]+$2,467}
Incremental annual cash flow =[($6,533-$2,221)+$2,467]
Incremental annual cash flow =$4,312+$2,467
Incremental annual cash flow=$6,779
Therefore the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project is $6,779
The following information is taken from the 2020 general ledger of Swisher Company. Rent Rent expense $48,000 Prepaid rent, January 1 5,900 Prepaid rent, December 31 9,000 Salaries Salaries and wages expense $54,000 Salaries and wages payable, January 1 10,000 Salaries and wages payable, December 31 8,000 Sales Sales revenue $175,000 Accounts receivable, January 1 16,000 Accounts receivable, December 31 7,000 In each case, compute the amount that should be reported in the operating activities section of the statement of cash flows under the direct method. Cash payments for rent $ Cash payments for salaries $ Cash receipts from customers
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
1. Cash payments
= Rent expense + Prepaid rent, December 31 - Prepaid rent January 1
= $48,000 + $9,000 - $5,900
= $51,100
2. Cash payments for salaries
= Salaries and wages expense + salaries and wages payable January 1, - salaries and wages payable December 31
= $54,000 + $10,000 - $8,000
= $56,000
3. Cash receipts from customers
= Sales revenue + Accounts receivables January 1 - Accounts receivables, December 31
= $175,000 + $16,000 - $7,000
= $184,000
Jessica purchased a home on January 1, 2018 for $580,000 by making a down payment of $230,000 and financing the remaining $350,000 with a 30-year loan, secured by the residence, at 6 percent. During 2018 and 2019, Jessica made interest-only payments on this loan of $21,000 (each year). On July 1, 2018, when her home was worth $580,000 Jessica borrowed an additional $145,000 secured by the home at an interest rate of 8 percent. During 2018, she made interest-only payments on the second loan in the amount of $5,800. During 2019, she made interest only on the second loan in the amount of $11,600. What is the maximum amount of the $32,600 interest expense Jessica paid during 2019 may she deduct as an itemized deduction if she used the proceeds of the second loan to finish the basement in her home and landscape her yard
Answer:
$32,600
Explanation:
Calculation to determine her itemized deduction if she used the proceeds of the second loan to finish the basement in her home and landscape her yard
Using this formula
Itemized deduction =(Financing amount * 6 percent)+(Additional amount borrowed*interest rate of 8 percent)
Let plug in the formula
Itemized deduction=( $350,000 * 6 percent)+($145,000 *8 percent)
Itemized deduction=($21,000+$11,600)
Itemized deduction=$32,600
Therefore her itemized deduction if she used the proceeds of the second loan to finish the basement in her home and landscape her yard wi be $32,600
Kier Company issued $700,000 in bonds on January 1, Year 1. The bonds were issued at face value and carried a 4-year term to maturity. The bonds have a 6.50% stated rate of interest and interest is payable in cash on December 31 each year. Based on this information alone, what are the amounts of interest expense and cash flows from operating activities, respectively, that will be reported in the financial statements for the year ending December 31, Year 1
Answer: Interest expense = $45500
Cash outflow = $45500
Explanation:
Based on the information that were given in the question, the amounts of interest expense and cash flows from operating activities, that will be reported in the financial statements for the year ending December 31, Year 1 will be calculated thus:
Interest expense = $700,000 × 6.50%
= $700,000 × 0.065
= $45500
The interest expense of $45500 will be reported on December 31, Year 1 in the income statement and will also be reported in the cash outflow as well. Therefore,
Interest expense = $45500
Cash outflow = $45500

Hsung Company accumulates the following data concerning a proposed capital investment: cash cost $226,445, net annual cash flows $40,500, and present value factor of cash inflows for 10 years is 5.89 (rounded). (If the net present value is negative, use either a negative sign preceding the number eg -45 or parentheses eg (45).) Determine the net present value, and indicate whether the investment should be made.
Answer:
Hsung Company
a. The net present value is:
= $12,100.
b. Since the investment could yield a net present value of $12,100, the investment should be made.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Cash cost of proposed capital investment = $226,445
Net annual cash inflows = $40,500
Present value factor of cash inflows for 10 years = 5.89 (rounded)
Present value of net annual cash inflows = $238,545 ($40,500 * 5.89)
The net present value of the proposed capital project = Present value of net annual cash inflows minus the initial investment cost
= $12,100 ($238,545 - $226,445)
Answer:
12100
Explanation:
40500*5.89=238545
238545-226445=12100

Sunland Company just began business and made the following four inventory purchases in June: June 1 153 units $1071 June 10 204 units 1632 June 15 204 units 1836 June 28 153 units 1530 $6069 A physical count of merchandise inventory on June 30 reveals that there are 204 units on hand. Using the average cost method, the amount allocated to the ending inventory on June 30 is
Answer:
the ending inventory is $1,734
Explanation:
The computation of the amount allocated to the ending inventory is shown below:
But before that the average per unit is
= Total amount ÷ total units
= $6,069 ÷ (153 + 204 + 204 + 153)
= $8.5
Since the ending inventory units is 204 units
So, the ending inventory is
= $8.5 ×204 units
= $1,734
hence, the ending inventory is $1,734

Required:
What is the amount of the company's accounts receivable?
Answer:
The amount of the company's accounts receivable is $2,558,750.
Explanation:
Accounts Receivables are amounts owed to the company. They are measured at amounts that the company expects to be entitled to after a sale.
The sale journal is :
Debit : Accounts Receivables (5,750 units x $445) $2,558,750
Credit : Sales Revenue (5,750 units x $445) $2,558,750
The price of Microsoft is $37 per share and that of Apple is $43 per share. The price of Microsoft increases to $42 per share after one year and to $47 after two years. Also, shares of Apple increase to $49 after one year and to $59 after two years. If your portfolio comprises 100 shares of each security, what is your portfolio return in year 1 and year 2
Answer: 13.75% ; 16.48%
Explanation:
Year 0:
Microsoft: Current value = 100 at $37 = $3700
Apple: Current value = 100 at $43 = $4300
Portfolio value = $3700 + $4300 = $8000
Year 1:
Microsoft: value at year 1 = 100 at $42 = $4200
Apple: value at year 1= 100 at $49 = $4900
Portfolio value = $4200 + $4900 = $9100
Year 2:
Microsoft: value at year 2 = 100 at $47 = $4700
Apple: value at year 2 = 100 at $59 = $5900
Portfolio value = $4700 + $5900 = $10600
Therefore, Portfolio returns for year 1 will be:
= (value at the end of year 1 / current value) - 1
= (9100 / 8000) - 1
= 1.1375 - 1
= 0.1375
= 13.75%
Portfolio returns for year 2 will be:
= (value at the end of year 2 / value at the end of year 1) - 1
= (10600 / 9100) - 1
= 16.48%

Problem 8-27A (Static) Computing standard cost and analyzing variances LO 8-5, 8-6 Spiro Company manufactures molded candles that are finished by hand. The company developed the following standards for a new line of drip candles. Amount of direct materials per candle 1.6 pounds Price of direct materials per pound $ 1.50 Quantity of labor per unit 1 hour Price of direct labor per hour $ 20 /hour Total budgeted fixed overhead $ 390,000 During Year 2, Spiro planned to produce 30,000 drip candles. Production lagged behind expectations, and it actually produced only 24,000 drip candles. At year-end, direct materials purchased and used amounted to 40,000 pounds at a unit price of $1.35 per pound. Direct labor costs were actually $18.75 per hour and 26,400 actual hours were worked to produce the drip candles. Overhead for the year actually amounted to $330,000. Overhead is applied to products using a predetermined overhead rate based on estimated units.
This question asks us to:
a. Determine the standard cost per candle for direct products, direct labor, and overhead.
b. Calculate the total standard cost of one drip candle.
c. Determine the direct materials, direct labor, and overhead actual costs per candle.
d. The total actual cost of each candle
Answer:
Explanation:
a.
Cost Computation Standard cost per unit
Direct material [tex]\$1.50 \times 1.6[/tex] 2.4
Direct Labor [tex]\$20 \times 1[/tex] 20
Overhead [tex]\dfrac{\$390,000}{30000}[/tex] 13
b.
To find the total average standard cost for 1 drip candle
The total standard cost per dip candle = $(2.4+20+13)
=$35.40
c. The actual cost per candle for direct materials, direct labor, and overhead can be computed as:
Cost Computation Standard cost per unit
Direct material [tex](\dfrac{40000}{24000}\times 1.35)[/tex] 2.25
Direct Labor [tex]\dfrac{26400}{24000} \times 18.75[/tex] 20.63
Overhead [tex]\dfrac{\$330,000}{24000}[/tex] 13.75
d. The total actual cost per candle = $(2.25 + 20.63 + 13.75)
= $36.63
Break-even sales and sales to realize operating incomeFor the current year ended March 31, Cosgrove Company expects fixed costs of $465,000, a unit variable cost of $62, and a unit selling price of $92.a. Compute the anticipated break-even sales (units).fill in the blank 1 unitsb. Compute the sales (units) required to realize operating income of $108,000.fill in the blank 2 units
Answer:
Break even point in units=15,500 units
Units to achieve target profit=19,100 units
Explanation:
Break-even point is the level of activity at which a firm must operate such that its total revenue will equal its total costs. At this point, the company makes no profit or loss because the total contribution exactly equals the total fixed costs
Break-even point (in units) is calculated using this formula:
Break even point in units = Total general fixed cost/ (selling price - Variable cost)
Break even point in units= $465,000/(92-62)=15,500 units
Units to achieve target profit = (Total general fixed cost for the period + target profit)/ contribution per unit
Units to achieve target profit of 108,000 = ($465,000+ 108,000)/ (92-62)=19,100 units
Break even point in units=15,500 units
Units to achieve target profit=19,100 units

Answer:
D. Are there enough volunteers to work a car wash?
Explanation:
Storm Tools has formed a new business unit to produce battery-powered drills. The business unit was formed by the transfer of selected assets and obligations from the parent company. The unit's initial balance sheet on January 1 contained cash ($500,000), plant and equipment ($2,500,000), notes payable to the parent ($1,000,000), and residual equity ($2,000,000).
The business unit is expected to repay the note at $50,000 per month, plus all accrued interest at 1/2% per month. Payments are made on the last day of each month.
The unit is scheduled to produce 25,000 drills during January, with an increase of 2,500 units per month for the next three months. Each drill requires $40 of raw materials. Raw materials are purchased on account, and paid in the month following the month of purchase. The plant manager has established a goal to end each month with raw materials on hand, sufficient to meet 25% of the following month's planned production.
The unit expects to sell 20,000 drills in January; 25,000 in February, 25,000 in March, and 30,000 per month thereafter. The selling price is $100 per drill. Half of the drills will be sold for cash through a website. The others will be sold to retailers on account, who pay 40% in the month of purchase, and 60% in the following month. Uncollectible accounts are not material. Each drill requires 20 minutes of direct labor to assemble. Labor rates are $24 per hour. Variable factory overhead is applied at $9 per direct labor hour. The fixed factory overhead is $25,000 per month; 60% of this amount is related to depreciation of plant and equipment. With the exception of depreciation, all overhead is funded as incurred.
Selling, general, and administrative costs are funded in cash as incurred, and consist of fixed components (salaries, $100,000; office, $40,000; and advertising, $75,000) and variable components (15% of sales). Prepare a monthly comprehensive budget plan for Storm's new business unit for January through March. The plan should include the (a) sales and cash collections budget, (b) production budget, (c) direct materials purchases and payments budget, (d) direct labor budget, (e) factory overhead budget, (f) ending finished goods budget (assume total factory overhead is applied to production at the rate of $11.73 per direct labor hour), (g) SG&A budget, and (h) cash budget.

Mauro Products distributes a single product, a woven basket whose selling price is $28 per unit and whose variable expense is $23 per unit. The company’s monthly fixed expense is $9,500. Required: 1. Calculate the company’s break-even point in unit sales. 2. Calculate the company’s break-even point in dollar sales. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) 3. If the company's fixed expenses increase by $600, what would become the new break-even point in unit sales? In dollar sales? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 9,500 / (28 - 23)
Break-even point in units= 1,900 units
To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 9,500 / (5 / 28)
Break-even point (dollars)= $53,200
Finally, the fixed costs increase to $10,100:
Break-even point in units= 10,100 / 5
Break-even point in units= 2,020 units
Break-even point (dollars)= 10,100 / (5/28)
Break-even point (dollars)= $56,560

Income tax (21%) 66,458
After-tax income $249,998
equivalent to $250,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
CLIFF CONSULTING
Contribution Income Statement
For the Year Ended September 30
Sales revenue $ 1,200,000
Variable costs
Cost of services $ 480,000
Selling and administrative 60,000 540,000
Contribution margin 660,000
Fixed Costs -selling and administrative 440,000
Before-tax profit 220,000
Income taxes (21%) 46,200
After-tax profit $ 173,800
Break-even point in sales revenue = Fixed costs/Contribution margin ratio
= $440,000/0.55
= $800,000
Annual margin of safety = normal sales revenue minus break-even sales revenue
= $1,200,000 - $800,000
= $400,000
Contribution margin ratio = contribution margin/sales revenue * 100
= $660,000/$1,200,000 * 100 = 55%
If fixed costs increases by $80,000, the break-even point in sales revenue
= ($440,000 + $80,000)/0.55 = $520,000/0.55 = $945,455
To achieve after-tax net income of $250,000, the required dollar sales revenue:
Net income after-tax = $250,000
Tax rate = 21%
Net income before tax = $250,000/1-21%
= $250,000/0.79 = $316,456
Sales dollars to achieve target profit = (Fixed costs + Target Profit/1 - 0.21)/Contribution margin
= ($440,000 + ($250,000/0.79))/0-55
= ($440,000 + $316,456)/0.55
= $756,456/0.55
= $1,375,375
Abbreviated Contribution Income Statement
Sales revenue $1,375,375
Variable costs = 618,919
Contribution = $756,456
Fixed costs 440,000
Before tax income 316,456
Income tax (21%) 66,458
After-tax income $249,998
After-tax income is equivalent to $250,000
Just before the year ended, a company offered to buy 4,120 units for $14.95 each. X Company had the capacity to produce the additional 4,120 units, but because the special order product was slightly different than the regular product, direct material costs were expected to increase to $2.40 per unit, and some special equipment would have to be rented for a total of $19,000.
Sales $1,225,500
Cost of goods sold 521,805
Gross margin $703,695
Selling and administrative costs 153,510
Profit $550,185
Fixed cost of goods sold for the year was $130,935, and fixed selling and administrative costs were $72,885. The special order product has some unique features that will require additional material costs of $0.90 per unit and the rental of special equipment for $3,000. Assume the following fact: regular variable selling and administrative costs include sales commissions equal to 4% of sales, but there will be no sales commissions on the special order. This will cause the special order profit to increase by:__________

Last month when Holiday Creations, Inc., sold 41,000 units, total sales were $282,000, total variable expenses were $214,320, and fixed expenses were $36,900. Required: 1. What is the company’s contribution margin (CM) ratio? 2. What is the estimated change in the company’s net operating income if it can increase total sales by $1,700? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
1. Company’s contribution margin (CM) ratio = 24%
2. Estimated change in the company’s net operating income = $408
Explanation:
1. What is the company’s contribution margin (CM) ratio?
Contribution margin (CM) = Total sales - Total variable expenses = $282,000 - $214,320 = $67,680
Contribution margin (CM) ratio = Contribution margin / Total sales = $67,680 / $282,000 = 0.24, or 24%
2. What is the estimated change in the company’s net operating income if it can increase total sales by $1,700? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Estimated change in the company’s net operating income = Increase total in sales * Contribution margin (CM) ratio = $1.700 * 24% = $408
The underlying principle of the temporal method is Group of answer choices all balance sheet accounts are translated at the current exchange rate, except stockholder equity. monetary balance sheet accounts should be translated at the spot rate; nonmonetary accounts are translated at the historical rate in effect when the account was first recorded. monetary accounts are translated at the current exchange rate; other accounts are translated at the current exchange rate if they are carried on the books at current value; items carried at historical cost are translated at historic exchange rates. assets and liabilities should be translated based on their maturity.
Answer:
monetary accounts are translated at the current exchange rate; other accounts are translated at the current exchange rate if they are carried on the books at current value; items carried at historical cost are translated at historic exchange rates.
Explanation:
The principle of the temporal method means that the accounts that are monetary in nature would be transform at the current or present exchange rate, also the other account would be transform but they should be at the current value. In addition to this, if the items are at historical cost so they should be transform at historic exchange rates

Answer:
I. All cost allocation bases used in ABC systems are cost drivers.
III. ABC systems can eliminate cost distortions because ABC develops cost drivers that have a cause-and-effect relationship with the activities performed.
Explanation:
I. is TRUE since the basis of ABC costing is determining, quantifying, and using cost drivers to allocate overhead costs.
III, is TRUE since the advantage of ABC costing is allocating costs based on cause and effect relationships.
II. ABC systems are useful in manufacturing, but not in merchandising or service industries. ⇒ FALSE
ABC costing can also be used for merchandising and service industries, although, it is mostly used in manufacturing businesses.13) Storico Co. just paid a dividend of $3.15 per share. The company will increase its dividend by 20 percent next year and then reduce its dividend growth rate by 5 percentage points per year until it reaches the industry average of 5 percent dividend growth, after which the company will keep a constant growth rate forever. If the required return on the company’s stock is 12 percent, what will a share of stock sell for today? (4 pts)
Answer:
$61.29
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what will a share of stock sell for today
First step is to calculate the price in Year 3
P3= $3.15(1.20)(1.15)(1.10)(1.05) / (.12 – .05)
P3= $5.020785/0.07
P3=$71.72
Now Let Calculate the price of stock today using the Present Value (PV) of the first three dividends in addition with the Present Value (PV) of the stock price in Year 3:
P0= $3.15(1.20)/(1.12) + $3.15(1.20)(1.15)/1.12^²+ $3.15(1.20)(1.15)(1.10)/1.12^³+ $71.72/1.12^³
P0=$3.78/1.12+$4.347/1.2544+$4.7817/1.404928+$71.72/1.404928
P0=$3.375+3.465+3.4035+$51.048
P0= $61.29
Therefore what will a share of stock sell for today is $61.29
Grey Corp owns 100% of Blue Company. On January 1, 2017 Grey sold Blue a machine for $66,000. Immediately prior to the sale, the machine was recorded on Grey's books at a net book value of $25,000. Prior to the sale, Grey was depreciating the machine on a straight-line basis with 9 years of remaining life and no salvage value. Blue plans to adopt the same depreciation assumptions as Grey. What elimination adjustments with respect to this sale must be made to consolidated net income in 2018 (ignoring income tax effects)
Answer:
Journal 1 - Eliminate gain on sale :
Debit : Other Income ($66,000 - $25,000) $41,000
Credit : Machinery $41,000
Journal 2 - Eliminate the unrealized profit from the sale :
Debit : Accumulated depreciation $4,556
Credit : Depreciation $4,556
Explanation:
Grey Corp and Blue Company are in a group of Companies. Grey Corp is the Parent and should prepare Consolidated Financial Statements . Blue Company is a subsidiary (Grey owns more that 50 % of voting rights in Blue Company).
When preparing Consolidated Financial Statements, intragroup transaction must be eliminated. As they happen, a Company trades within its-self that is the reason they should be eliminated.
Concerning the sale of machine by Grey (Parent) to Blue (Subsidiary), we must first eliminate the Income (gain on sale) in Parent as well as the asset that sits in the Subsidiary.
Debit : Other Income ($66,000 - $25,000) $41,000
Credit : Machinery $41,000
Also, we have to eliminate the unrealized profit on the gain of the asset sold.
Debit : Accumulated depreciation $4,556
Credit : Depreciation $4,556
Deprecation calculation :
Deprecation = $41,000 ÷ 9 = $4,556
Use the chart to answer the questions. Year Potential GDP Real GDP 2017 $18.17 trillion $18.05 trillion 2018 $18.51 trillion $18.56 trillion Be sure to put your answer in percentage form, and round answers to two decimal places. a. Calculate the output gap for 2017. % b. Calculate the output gap for 2018. % c. From 2017 to 2018, the output gap became more .
Answer:
a. Output gap for 2017 = –0.66%
b. Output gap for 2018 = 0.27%
c. From 2017 to 2018, the output gap became more positive.
Explanation:
The following are given in the question:
Year Potential GDP Real GDP
2017 $18.17 trillion $18.05 trillion
2018 $18.51 trillion $18.56 trillion
To calculate output gap in percentage form, the following formula is used:
Output gap = ((Real GDP - Potential GDP) / Potential GDP) * 100 ......... (1)
Therefore, we have:
a. Calculate the output gap for 2017. %
Using equation (1), we have:
Output gap for 2017 = ((18.05 - 18.17) / 18.17) * 100 = –0.66%
b. Calculate the output gap for 2018. %
Using equation (1), we have:
Output gap for 2018 = ((18.56 - 18.51) / 18.51) * 100 = 0.27%
c. From 2017 to 2018, the output gap became more .
Since the output gap in 2017 is negative while the output gap in 2018 is positive; this implies that from 2017 to 2018, the output gap became more positive.
The _____ the distance between the time of the event and the time the client knows about the events, the greater _____. greater; the probability of achieving the project goals greater; the likelihood of satisfying the client lesser; the client's doubt in the project team's ability to do the task lesser; the frustration of the client greater; the client's frustration and mistrust
Answer:
greater; the client's frustration and mistrust.
Explanation:
Project management can be defined as the process of designing, planning, developing, leading and execution of a project plan or activities using a set of skills, tools, knowledge, techniques and experience to achieve the set goals and objectives of creating a unique product or service.
The fundamentals of Project Management includes;
1. Project initiation
2. Project planning
3. Project execution
4. Monitoring and controlling of the project
5. Adapting and closure of project.
It is very important and essential that project managers in various organizations, businesses and professions adopt the aforementioned fundamentals in order to successfully achieve their aim, objectives and goals set for a project.
Generally, projects are considered to be temporary because they usually have a start-time and an end-time to complete, execute or implement the project plan.
The greater the distance between the time of the event and the time the client knows about the events, the greater the client's frustration and mistrust. Thus, project managers are advised to reduce a client's frustration and enhance trust by reducing the distance between the time of the event and the time the client knows about the events i.e timely dissemination of informations to the client.

Q 22.14: The Eccleston Company has the following budgeted sales: January $40,000, February $60,000, and March $50,000. 40% of the sales are for cash and 60% are on credit. For the credit sales, 50% of the amount is collected in the month of sale, and 50% in the next month. The total expected cash receipts during March are
Answer:
Total cash collection March= $53,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales:
February $60,000
March $50,000.
Sales in cash= 40%
Sales on account= 60% (50% of the amount is collected in the month of sale, and 50% in the next month)
We need to calculate the cash collection for March:
Cash collection March:
Sales on Cash March= (50,000*0.4)= 20,000
Sales on account March= (50,000*0.6)*0.5= 15,000
Sales on account February= (60,000*0.6)*0.5= 18,000
Total cash collection March= $53,000
