    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:

    Receipts from customers $23000
    Payables;
    Materials $12000
    Wages $6000
    Net cash inflow=$5000

    Sir 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
    $5,000

    I 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
    $4500

    Sir 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?

    I am sorry but I do not have the time to work through the whole of this question. I have to go to work and cannot spend all day answering questions 🙂
