Calculate the expected cash collections from customers for May. 2. Calculate the expected cash disbursements for merchandise purchases for May. 3. Prepare a cash budget for May. (Hint: In the financing section, make sure to denote cash outflows as negative numbers. In the cash disbursements section, the cash outflows should be written as positive numbers. I know this seems counterintuitive - accountants tend to write costs as positive numbers if they are listed in a section of the financial statements that is already labeled as "costs" or "expenses" or "disbursements" because then you know they are all outflows. But in a section where inflows and outflows are mixed, like in the financing section, they make the outflows negative numbers.) 4. Prepare a budgeted income statement for May. (Hint: here, the interest payment will have a positive sign. Another hint: Remember from ACTG 211 that Cost of Goods Sold = beginning inventory account balance + inventory purchase cost - ending inventory account balance.) 5. Prepare a budgeted balance sheet as of May 31. (Hint: You won't need every line on the worksheet. There should be four 'asset' items and four 'liability and owners' equity' items, matching the categories in the beginning balance sheet above. Another hint: Remember from ACTG 211 that "Buildings and Equipment, net of depreciation" is increased every month by any new building or equipment purchases, and decreased by any depreciation. May depreciation is given in part d above.) Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below
