What does 30% of purchases are by cash and the reminder paid three month after purchases mean
3y ago#4It means that if they make purchases of (say) $100 then they pay 30% i.e. $30 immediately in cash and the remaining $70 is on credit and so the cash is paid 3 months later.
This relates to the preparation of cash budgets.
Have you watched my free lectures on cash budgets where this is explained?
The lectures are a complete free course for Paper MA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
