The president of Opal Products, has just approached the companys bank with a request for a P30,000, 90-day loan. The purpose of the loan is to assist the company in acquiring inventories in support of peak April sales. Since the company has had some difficulty in paying off its loans in the past, the loan officer has asked for a cash budget to help determine whether the loan should be made. The following data are available for the months April-June, during which the loan will be used:

1. On April 1, the start of the loan period, the cash balance will be P26,000. Accounts receivable on April 1 will total P151,500, of which P141,000 will be collected during April and P7,200 will be collected during May. The remainder will be uncollectible.

1. Past experience shows that 20% of a months sales are collected in the month of sale, 75% in the following sale, and 4% in the second month following sale. The other 1% represents bad debts that are never collected. Budgeted sales and expenses for the period follow:

	April	May	June
Sales .	P200,000	P300,000	P250,000
Merchandise purchases .	120,000	180,000	150,000
Payroll ..	9,000	9,000	8,000
Lease payments	15,000	15,000	15,000
Advertising ..	70,000	80,000	60,000
Equipment purchases ..	8,000	-	-
Depreciation	10,000	10,000	10,000

c. Merchandise purchases are paid in full during the month following purchase. Accounts payable for merchandise purchases on March 31, which will be paid during April, total P108,000.

1. In preparing the cash budget, assume that the P30,000 loan will be made in April and repaid in June. Interest on the loan will total P1,200.

If the company needs a minimum cash balance of P20,000 to start each month, can the loan be repaid as planned? Explain. Show supporting computations by preparing a CASH BUDGET.
