Problem 22-7AA Merchandising: Preparation and analysis of cash budgets with supporting inventory and purchases budgets LO P4 Aztec Company sells its product for $160 per unit. Its actual and budgeted sales follow. April (actual) May (actual) June (budgeted) July (budgeted) August (budgeted) Units 4,000 2,400 5,500 4,500 3,900 Dollars $ 640,000 384,000 880,000 879,000 624,000 All sales are on credit. Recent experience shows that 26% of credit sales is collected in the month of the sale, 44% in the month after the sale, 25% in the second month after the sale, and 5% proves to be uncollectible. The product's purchase price is $110 per unit. 60% of purchases made in a month is paid in that month and the other 40% is paid in the next month. The company has a policy to maintain an ending monthly inventory of 19% of the next month's unit sales plus a safety stock of 155 units. The April 30 and May 31 actual inventory levels are consistent with this policy. Selling and administrative expenses for the year are $1,752,000 and are paid evenly throughout the year in cash. The company's minimum cash balance at month-end is $100,000. This minimum is maintained, if necessary, by borrowing cash from the bank. If the balance exceeds $100,000, the company repays as much of the loan as it can without going below the minimum. This type of loan carries an annual 11% interest rate. On May 31, the loan balance is $42,000, and the company's cash balance is $100,000. 5. Prepare a cash budget for June and July, including any loan activity and interest expense. Compute the loan balance at the end of each month.
