You were recently hired as an assistant controller at Just Tables (JT). JT sells one product, dining room tables made out of red cedar. You have been charged with preparing a cash budget for the second quarter (April to June) so that management can be aware of any financing requirements. You have collected the following information to assist you in preparation of the quarterly budget:

Recent and forecasted sales in units are as follows:

January (actual) 140

February (actual) 220

March (actual) 200

April 220

May 400

June 360

July 320

September 260

Tables are sold to retailers for $500 each. The company has a policy of having an ending inventory each month equal to 150% of the next months sales. The inventory balance at March 31^st was 330 tables. Each table requires 15 board feet of red cedar, which the company purchases for $4 per board foot. To protect against disruptions in production, management likes to keep enough cedar on hand at all times equal to 50% of the next months production needs. This requirement had been met on March 31^st in that the company had 3,675 board feet of red cedar in the warehouse. Purchases of lumber are paid for 50% at the time of purchase with the other 50% being paid the next month. All sales are on credit with 30% being collected in the month of sales, 50% being collected in the month following the month of sale and the remaining 20% being collected two months after the month of sale. JT has a tight credit policy and, as a result, does not have any bad debts. Tables are hand crafted taking, on average, 5 hours to assemble. Employees are paid $16 per hour and never work overtime. Manufacturing overhead includes all the costs of production other than the cedar and direct labour. The variable component is $25 per table manufactured and the fixed component is $32,000 per month. Fixed manufacturing overhead includes $12,000 of depreciation. Manufacturing overhead is applied to tables on the basis of tables manufactured.

JTs monthly operating expenses are given below:

Variable: Sales commissions $20 per table sold

Fixed: Wages and salaries $19,000

Utilities 1,700

Insurance 1,500

Depreciation 2,100

Miscellaneous 2,200

All operating expenses are paid in the month for cash, with the exception of depreciation and insurance. Insurance is paid once a year in January ($18,000) then expensed over the entire year. The company plans to purchase some new manufacturing equipment in April for $26,000. JT declares a dividend of $5,000 on the last day of every quarter (i.e. March 31^st, June 30^th, September 30^th and December 31^st) and pays it one month later (i.e. the March dividend is paid April 30^th, the June dividend is paid July 31^st, etc.)
