Required: Use Microsoft Excel to complete this assignment. Each student is to create his/her own file from scratch, and complete the assignment individually. Use formulas wherever possible. The spreadsheet should be formatted to show amounts to the nearest dollar (no cents).

The items in the budget should appear in the following order:

1. The balance sheet for December 31, 2021 (as given above).

2. A cash receipts schedule for January, February and March. Hint: use the given percentages, with the Round function (explained below), to avoid a rounding error. Check figure: Cash receipts for January should be $20,520.

3. A purchases schedule in units for January, February and March. Check figure: January purchases should be 114 units.

4. A cash payments schedule for January, February and March. Check figure: Januarys total cash payments should be $22,157.

5. A cash budget for January, February and March, including a calculation of cumulative loan at the bottom. Check figure: At the end of January the cash balance should be $4,000 and the cumulative loan should be $2,837.

6. The pro-forma income statements for January, February and March with a fourth column for totals. Subtotals for EBIT and EBT should be included. List all expenses separately (do not combine) and show long-term and short-term interest separately. Hint: Cost of goods sold is not the same thing as purchases. Check figure: Januarys earnings after taxes should be $1,029

7. A pro-forma retained earnings schedule for the quarter ended March 31 (not for each month). Check figure: Ending retained earnings should be $2,547.

8. A pro-forma balance sheet at March 31. You do not have to complete balance sheets for January or February.

Tax payable will be the opening balance plus total tax expense less total tax instalments. Check figure: Total assets should be $31,460.
