At the beginning of the 2016 school year, Britney Logan decided to prepare a cash budget for the months of September, October, November, and December. The budget must plan for enough cash on December 31 to pay the spring semester tuition, which is the same as the fall tuition. The following information relates to the budget:

Cash balance, September 1 (from a summer job)	$8,080
Purchase season football tickets in September	110
Additional entertainment for each month	280
Pay fall semester tuition in September	4,400
Pay rent at the beginning of each month	390
Pay for food each month	220
Pay apartment deposit on September 2 (to be returned December 15)	600
Part-time job earnings each month (net of taxes)	1,000
