Problem 8.39 Cash Budget
Friendly Freddie's is an independently owned major appliance and electronics discount chain with
seven stores located in a Midwestern metropolitan area. Rapid expansion has created the need for
careful planning of cash requirements to ensure that the chain is able to replenish stock adequately
and meet payment schedules to creditors. Fred Ferguson, founder of the chain, has established a
banking relationship that provides a $200,000 line of credit to Friendly Freddie's. The bank
requires that a minimum balance of $8,200 be kept in the chain's checking account at the end of
cach month. When the balance goes below $8,200, the bank automatically extends the line of
credit in multiples of $1,000 so that the checking account balance is at least $8,200 at month-end.
Friendly Freddie's attempts to borrow as little as possible and repays the loans quickly in
multiples of S1,000 plus 2 percent monthly interest on the entire loan balance. Interest payments
and any principal payments are paid at the end of the month following the loan. The chain cur-
rently has no outstanding loans.
The following cash recipts and disbursements data apply to the fourth quarter of the current
calendar year.

Projected cash collection of sales on account is estimated to be 70 percent in the month fol-
lowing the sale, 20 percent in the second month following the sale, and 6 percent in the third
month following the sale. The 4 percent beyond the third month following the sale is determined
to be uncollectible. In addition, the chain is scheduled to receive $13,000 cash on a note recciva-
ble in October.
All inventory purchases are made on account as the chain has excellent credit with all ven-
dors because of a strong payment history. The following information regarding inventory pur-
chases is available.

expenses during October, November, and December are estimated to be $38,000, $41,000, and
$46,000, respectively.
