I keep getting different answers for this question. Can you explain to me once you've finished part a and b how you figured out the accounts receivable? Do we do any repayment for the 3rd quarter and what is the interest? Some people have interest and some don't, what is it really?

Cash sales

Credit sales—month of sale

Uncollectible

 Total

The company tries to maintain an inventory of 20% of the following month's sales. The company expects to have 1,940 Units on hand on June 30. Durianx pays an average of $125 per Units.

The company pays for 60% of its purchases in the month of purchase and the remaining 40% in the month after purchase.

The following monthly selling and administrative expenses are planned for t­­he quarter.

On August 1st , the company plans to purchase $500,000 of new office equipment and a delivery truck. Additional depreciation is already accounted for in the above selling and administrative expenses.

Durianx will collect the full $436,800 accounts receivable balance of June 30th in July. Durianx will pay the $481,000 of June Accounts Payable in July.

Durianx wants to maintain a minimum cash balance of $40,000. An open line of credit at a local bank allows the company to borrow up to $500,000 per quarter in $1,000 increments.

All borrowing is done at the beginning of the month, and all repayments are made at the end of a month in $1,000 increments. Accrued interest on the loan is paid only when principal is repaid. The interest rate is 12% per year. This means that if the loan is not reimbursed during the quarter then no interest expense is paid during that time.

Durianx's tax rate is 30%.

The June 30 balance sheet is budgeted as follows:

June 30

$  70,000
