Assume the following: Animal Gear (AG) does not make any sales on credit. AG sells only to the public and accepts cash and credit cards; 90% of its sales are to customers using credit cards, for which AG gets the cash right away, less a 2% transaction fee.
Purchases of materials are on account. AG pays for half the purchases in the period of the purchase and the other half in the following period. At the end of March, AG owes suppliers $8,000.
AG plans to replace a machine in April at a net cash cost of $13,000.
Labor, other
AG currently has a $2,000 loan at an annual interest rate of 12%. The interest is paid at the end of each month. If AG has more than $7,000 cash at the end of April it will pay back the loan. AG owes $5,000 in income taxes that need to be remitted in April. AG has cash of $5,900 on hand at the end of March.

- Shalimar Company manufactures and sells industrial products. For next year, Shalimar has budgeted the follow sales: In Shalimars experience, 10 percent of sales are paid in cash. Of the sales on account, 65 percent are collected in the quarter of sale, 25 percent are collected in the quarter following the sale, and 7 percent are collected in the second quarter after the sale. The remaining 3 percent are never collected. Total sales for the third quarter of the current year are 4,900,000 and for the fourth quarter of the current year are 6,850,000. Required: 1. Calculate cash sales and credit sales expected in the last two quarters of the current year, and in each quarter of next year. 2. Construct a cash receipts budget for Shalimar Company for each quarter of the next year, showing the cash sales and the cash collections from credit sales. 3. What if the recession led Shalimars top management to assume that in the next year 10 percent of credit sales would never be collected? The expected payment percentages in the quarter of sale and the quarter after sale are assumed to be the same. How would that affect cash received in each quarter? Construct a revised cash budget using the new assumption.arrow_forwardCash Budget The controller of Feinberg Company is gathering data to prepare the cash budget for July. He plans to develop the budget from the following information: a. Of all sales, 40% are cash sales. b. Of credit sales, 45% are collected within the month of sale. Half of the credit sales collected within the month receive a 2% cash discount (for accounts paid within 10 days). Thirty percent of credit sales are collected in the following month; remaining credit sales are collected the month thereafter. There are virtually no bad debts. c. Sales for the second two quarters of the year follow. (Note: The first 3 months are actual sales, and the last 3 months are estimated sales.) d. The company sells all that it produces each month. The cost of raw materials equals 26% of each sales dollar. The company requires a monthly ending inventory of raw materials equal to the coming months production requirements. Of raw materials purchases, 50% is paid for in the month of purchase. The remaining 50% is paid for in the following month. e. Wages total 105,000 each month and are paid in the month incurred. f. Budgeted monthly operating expenses total 376,000, of which 45,000 is depreciation and 6,000 is expiration of prepaid insurance (the annual premium of 72,000 is paid on January 1). g. Dividends of 130,000, declared on June 30, will be paid on July 15. h. Old equipment will be sold for 25,200 on July 4. i. On July 13, new equipment will be purchased for 173,000. j. The company maintains a minimum cash balance of 20,000. k. The cash balance on July 1 is 27,000. Required: Prepare a cash budget for July. Give a supporting schedule that details the cash collections from sales.arrow_forwardBefore the year began, the following static budget was developed for the estimated sales of 100,000.

- Before the year began, the following static budget was developed for the estimated sales of 50,000. Sales are higher than expected and management needs to revise its budget.

The pro forma income statement for the current year is as follows: Required: 1. What is the break-even sales revenue (rounded to the nearest dollar) for Carmichael Corporation for the current year? 2. For the coming year, the management of Carmichael Corporation anticipates an 8 percent increase in variable costs and a 60,000 increase in fixed expenses. What is the break-even point in dollars for next year? (CMA adapted)arrow_forwardIn an attempt to better understand RR’s cash position, Johnson developed a cash budget for the first 2 months of the year. She has the figures for the other months, but they are not shown. After looking at the cash budget, answer the following questions: What does the cash budget show regarding the target cash level? Should depreciation expense be explicitly included in the cash budget? Why or why not? What are some other potential cash inflows besides collections? How can interest earned or paid on short-term securities or loans be incorporated in the cash budget? In her preliminary cash budget, Johnson has assumed that all sales are collected and thus that RR has no bad debts. Is this realistic? If not, how would bad debts be dealt with in a cash budgeting sense? (Hint: Bad debts will affect collections but not purchases.)arrow_forward
