Answer 1

Cash received from customers = Beginning accounts receivable + Sales - Ending accounts receivable
Cash received from customers = $99,930 + $1,764,120 - $108,730
Cash received from customers = $1,755,320

Cost of merchandise purchased = Ending inventories + Cost of merchandise sold - Beginning inventories
Cost of merchandise purchased = $306,930 + $726,400 - $295,870
Cost of merchandise purchased = $737,460

Cash payments for merchandise = Beginning accounts payable + Cost of merchandise purchased - Ending accounts payable
Cash payments for merchandise = $193,000 + $737,460 - $205,010
Cash payments for merchandise = $725,450

Cash payments for operating expenses = Beginning accrued expenses payable + Other operating expenses - Ending accrued expenses payable
Cash payments for operating expenses = $25,470 + $916,060 - $20,390
Cash payments for operating expenses = $921,140

Cash payments for income taxes = Income tax expense
Cash payments for income taxes = $26,230

Cash received from sale of common stock = Ending common stock + Ending paid-in capital in excess of par - Beginning common stock - Beginning paid-in capital in excess of par
Cash received from sale of common stock = $61,160 + $229,920 - $48,010 - $133,240
Cash received from sale of common stock = $109,830

Cash paid for dividends = Beginning dividends payable + Dividends declared - Ending dividends payable
Cash paid for dividends = $8,820 + $22,100 - $11,330
Cash paid for dividends = $19,590
