Blitzen Co manufactures and sells a single product. It is preparing its budgets for the three month period ending 31 December 20X5. The budget is virtually complete and the remaining task is to prepare the budgeted statement of financial position as at 31 December 20X5. Sales of the product and purchases of materials are all made on credit terms. There were no purchases or disposals of non-current assets in the period to 31 December 20X5. Entries marked ‘n/a’ are yet to be calculated. The following information is available:

Net cash inflow=$5000Sir i really have confusion in this question
Question asks What figure should be included in the budgeted statement of financial position as at 31 December 20X5 for each of the following items?
I figured out cash and non current assets figure but i cant figure out receivables and payables figure
For receivables they’ve done it like this
Trade receivables at 30 September
$3,000
Plus credit sales in the 3 months to 31 December
$25,000
Less receipts from customers in the 3 months to 31December
$23,000
Trade receivables at 31 December
$5,000I dont get it how is it credit sales?
Also why they deducting receipt from customers? We going to receive it, so our receivables should be increasing
For payables they’ve done it like this
Trade payables at 30 September
$2,000
Plus raw materials used in the 3 months to 31 December
$14,000
Plus increase in raw material inventory in the 3 months to 31 December
$500
(4,500 – 4,000)
Less payments for raw materials in the 3 months to 31 December
$12,000
Trade payables at 31 December
$4500Sir here also they’re deducting payments of 3 months to 31st dec which I can’t understand and as well as adding raw material used I’m really confused here, please could you explain it sir?
October 25, 2022 at 5:50 pm #669961Sir this is the last question I’m confused about, because I’ve prepared every topic, please help me out with this one, I’ve tried to figure out what they’re actually doing but i think an explanation will clear it all, thankyou sir!
