Furthermore, she mentioned that she has added two of her siblings on the list of unprivileged pupils that the school identified. She mentioned that the two siblings are top athletes at the University of Westland and therefore deserve a pair each. a) Using Part A - prepare the MCO (Pty) Ltd cash budget for January 2022 for the sneakers section of the business and calculate the expected closing balance in the related bank account as at 31 January 2022.
