Budgeted Cash Collections
In an effort to improve cash collection, Suburban Medical Clinic offers terms of 2/10, n/30, with a 5% discount on patient payments made with cash. Suburban estimates its total billings for the second calendar quarter of the year as follows: April, $200,000; May, $240,000; and June, $290,000. Historically, Suburban has had the following patient collection patterns:
| Portions of Total Sales |
|
|---|---|
| In month of sale: | |
| Cash at time of sale | 25% |
| On account during the discount period | 20% |
| On account after the discount period | 10% |
| In month following sale: | |
| On account after the discount period | 25% |
| In second month following sale: | |
| On account after discount period | 15% |
| Average portion uncollectible | 5% |
| 100% |
