Cash Budget The Peoria Supply Company sells for $30 one product that it purchases for $20. Budgeted sales in total dollars for next year are $720,000. The sales information needed for preparing the July budget follows:

Month	Sales Revenue
May	$ 30,000
June	42,000
July	51,000
August	54,000

Account balances at July 1 include these:

Cash	$ 20,000
Merchandise inventory	18,000
Accounts receivable (sales)	23,000
Accounts payable (purchases)	12,000

The company pays for one-half of its purchases in the month of purchase and the remainder in the following month. End-of-month inventory must be 50 percent of the budgeted sales in units for the next month. A 2 percent cash discount on sales is allowed if payment is made during the month of sale. Experience indicates that 50 percent of the billings will be collected during the month of sale, 40 percent in the following month, 8 percent in the second following month, and 2 percent will be uncollectible. Total budgeted selling and administrative expenses (excluding bad debts) for the fiscal year are estimated at $180,000 , of which one-half is fixed expense (inclusive of a $18,000 annual depreciation charge). Fixed expenses are incurred evenly during the year. The other selling and administrative expenses vary with sales. Expenses are paid during the month incurred.
