Can you give an instruction how to calculate cash sales and credit sales in the following question?
Question: Prepare a cash budget for January and February 2014.
40% pay within the month of sale and get a 5% discount.
So the sales in January are 30,000 x $12 = $360,000.
The cash received in January will be (40% x 360,000) – 5% = 136,800
60% pay in the following month, the cash received in February from Januarys sales will be 60% x 360,000 = 216,000
You can do the same for each month (Februarys sales will be part cash received in February and part cash received in March in exactly the same way).
Totally understand now. Thank you very much !!!
You are welcome 🙂
