Admire is a retail company that sells specialized gardening products. The company is considering opening a new store on October 1, Year1. As budget coordinator, you have been asked to prepare a master budget for the first 3 months of the company’s operation. You have gathered the following information:
October sales are estimated to be $300000 of which 45 percent will be cash and the remainder will be on credit. The company expects all sales to increase at the rate of 20 percent per month for November and December. Sales in January Year 2 are expected to be $250000.
The company expects to collect 100 percent of the accounts receivable generated by credit sales in the month following the sale.
Prepare a sales budget and a schedule of cash receipts using these facts and your excel template. Check your answers here before moving to the next part, by completing the cells requested in the chart below.

The cost of goods sold is 60 percent of sales. The company desires to maintain a minimum ending inventory equal to 10 percent of the next month’s cost of goods sold. (Ending inventory for December is based on budgeted January Year2 sales.)
Assume that all inventory purchases are made on account (on credit). The company pays 80 percent of accounts payable in the month of purchase and the remaining amount in the following month.
