Big City Manufacturing (BCM) is preparing its cash budget and expects to have sales of $450,000 in January, $375,000 in February, and $555,000 in March. If 20% of the sales are for cash, 45% are credit sales paid in the month after the sale, and another 35% are credit sales paid 2 months after the sale.

Please assume that bad debt expense is again 0% for BCM. Purchases for next month's sales are 60% of projected sales for the next month, and April sales are estimated to be $495,000; purchases for April are paid in cash in March. "Other payments," which include wages, rent, and taxes, are 25% of sales for the current month. Construct a cash budget for March using your expected cash receipts from problem 7 and calculate the average net cash flow during the month of March. Enter your answer rounded to two decimal places. Do not enter $ or comma in the answer box. For example, if your answer is $12,300.456 then enter as 12300.46 in the answer box.
