Inventory $ 46,800
Building and equipment, net $ 116,400
Accounts payable $ 28,050

b. Actual and budgeted sales data:

March (actual) $62,000

d. Each months ending inventory should equal 80% of the following months budgeted cost of goods sold.
e.

f.

Monthly expenses are as follows: commissions, 12% of sales; rent, $3,500 per month; other expenses (excluding depreciation), 6% of sales. Assume that these expenses are paid monthly. Depreciation is $873 per month (includes depreciation on new assets).

g. Equipment costing $2,700 will be purchased for cash in April.
h.

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.

Using the data above:
