The following data relate to the operations of Shilow Company, a wholesale distributor of consumer goods: Current assets as of March 31: Cash $ 8,900 Accounts receivable $ 25,600 Inventory $ 48,000 Building and equipment, net $ 111,600 Accounts payable $ 28,800 Capital stock $ 150,000 Retained earnings $ 15,300 a. b. F\"?- The gross margin is 25% of sales. Actual and budgeted sales data: March (actual) $64,000 April $80,000 May $55,000 June $110,000 July $61 ,000 Sales are 60% for cash and 40% on credit. Credit sales are collected in the month following sale. The accounts receivable at March 31 are a result of March credit sales. Each month's ending inventory should equal 80% of the following month's budgeted cost of goods sold. One-half of a month's inventory purchases is paid for in the month of purchase; the other half is paid for in the following month. The accounts payable at March 31 are the result of March purchases of inventory. Monthly expenses are as follows: commissions, 12% of sales; rent, $3,700 per month; other expenses (excluding depreciation), 6% of sales. Assume that these expenses are paid monthly. Depreciation is $837 per month (includes depreciation on new assets). Equipment costing $2,900 will be purchased for cash in April. Management would like to maintain a minimum cash balance of at least $4,000 at the end of each month. The company has an agreement with a local bank that allows the company to borrow in increments of $1,000 at the beginning of each month, up to a total loan balance of $20,000. The interest rate on these loans is 1% per month and for simplicity we will assume that interest is not compounded. The company would, as far as it is able, repay the loan plus accumulated interest at the end of the quarter. 3. Complete the iollowing cash budget: (Borrow and repay in increments of $1,000. Cash deficiency, repayments and interest should be indicated by a minus sign.) Beginning cash balance is 8,900 _ Add cash collections 73,600 _ Total cash available -_ Less cash disbursements: _ _ _ For expenses 18,100 For equipment 2,900 Total cash disbursements 81,300 Excess (deciency) of cash 1,200 Financing: Borrowings Repayments Total nancing Ending cash balance
