Suppose that you manage Whitewater Sporting Goods Store No. 18, which carries a complete line of outdoor recreation gear. You are to prepare the master budget for your store for April, May, June and July, the main selling season. The division manager and the assistance controller (head of the accounting department) of the company will arrive from headquarters next week to review the budget with you. The balance sheet of your store as at 30th June, 2019, the beginning of the budget period, is shown in the following.

Cash collections follow sales because the company sells on account. When extra cash is needed, the company borrows on six-month instalment notes payable.

Sales in June 30 were $40, 000. Monthly sales are projected by sales personnel:

July $ 50, 000

August 80, 000

September 60, 000

October 50, 000

November 28000

Sales are 60 percent cash and 40 percent on credit. All credit sales are collected in the month following the sale. The $16, 000 of accounts receivable at June 30 arose from credit sales made in June (40 percent of $40 000). Uncollectible accounts are insignificant

Whitewater maintains inventory equal to $20 000 plus 80 percent of the budgeted cost of goods sold for the following month. (All these percentages are drawn from the business's past experience). Cost of goods sold averages 70 percent of sales.

Whitewater pays for inventory as follows: 50 percent during the month of purchase 50 percent during the next month. Accounts payable consists of inventory purchases only.

Monthly payroll has two parts: a salary of $2, 500 plus commissions equal to 15 percent of sales. The company pays half of this amount during the month and half early in the following month. Therefore, at the end of each month Whitewater reports salary and commissions payable equal to half the month's payroll.

Other monthly expenses are:

Rent expense $ 2 000, paid as incurred

Depreciation expense, including truck 500

Insurance expense 200 expiration of prepaid amount

Miscellaneous expense 5% of sales, paid as incurred.

A used delivery truck will be purchased in July for $3, 000 cash.

Whitewater requires each store to maintain a minimum cash balance of $10, 000 at the end of each month. The store can borrow money on notes payable of $10, 000 each at an annual rate of 12 percent. Management borrows no more than the amount needed to maintain the $10, 000 minimum balance. Notes payable require six equal monthly payments consisting of principal plus monthly interest on the entire unpaid principal. Borrowing and all principal and interest payment occur at the end of the month.

Income taxes are the responsibility of corporate headquarters, so you can ignore tax for budgeting purposes.
