At the beginning of the school year, Craig Kovar 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)	$6,470
Purchase season football tickets in September	90
Additional entertainment for each month	220
Pay fall semester tuition in September	3,500
Pay rent at the beginning of each month	310
Pay for food each month	180
Pay apartment deposit on September 2 (to be returned December 15)	400
Part-time job earnings each month (net of taxes)	800

a. Prepare a cash budget for September, October, November, and December. Use the minus sign to indicate cash outflows, a decrease in cash or cash payments.
