Consider the case: Mooney Equipment is putting together its cash budget for the following year and has forecasted expected cash collections over the next five quarters (one year plus the first quarter of the next year). The cash collection estimates are based on sales projections and expected collection of receivables. The sales and cash collection estimates are shown in the following table (in millions of dollars):

	Q1	Q2	Q3	Q4	Q5
Sales	$1,100	$1,400	$1,450	$1,250	$1,500
Total cash collections	$1,100	$1,150	$1,200	$1,200
