You have just been hired as a new management trainee by Earrings Unlimited, a distributor of earrings to various retail outlets located in shopping malls across the country. In the past, the company has done very little in the way of budgeting and at certain times of the year has experienced a shortage of cash. Since you are well trained in budgeting, you have decided to prepare a master budget for the upcoming second quarter. To this end, you have worked with accounting and other areas to gather the information assembled below.

The company sells many styles of earrings, but all are sold for the same price—$15 per pair. Actual sales of earrings for the last three months and budgeted sales for the next six months follow (in pairs of earrings):

The concentration of sales before and during May is due to Mother’s Day. Sufficient inventory should be on hand at the end of each month to supply 40% of the earrings sold in the following month.

Suppliers are paid $4.50 for a pair of earrings. One-half of a month’s purchases is paid for in the month of purchase; the other half is paid for in the following month. All sales are on credit. Only 20% of a month’s sales are collected in the month of sale. An additional 70% is collected in the following month, and the remaining 10% is collected in the second month following sale. Bad debts have been negligible.

Monthly operating expenses for the company are given below:

Insurance is paid on an annual basis, in November of each year.

The company plans to purchase $18,500 in new equipment during May and $45,000 in new equipment during June; both purchases will be for cash. The company declares dividends of $18,750 each quarter, payable in the first month of the following quarter.

The company’s balance sheet as of March 31 is given below:

The company maintains a minimum cash balance of $55,000. All borrowing is done at the beginning of a month; any repayments are made at the end of a month.

The company has an agreement with a bank that allows the company to borrow in increments of $1,000 at the beginning of each month. The interest rate on these loans is 1% per month and for simplicity we will assume that interest is not compounded. At the end of the quarter, the company would pay the bank all of the accumulated interest on the loan and as much of the loan as possible (in increments of $1,000), while still retaining at least $55,000 in cash.

Required:

Prepare a master budget for the three-month period ending June 30. Include the following detailed schedules:

2. A cash budget. Show the budget by month and in total. Determine any borrowing that would be needed to maintain the minimum cash balance of $55,000.

3. A budgeted income statement for the three-month period ending June 30. Use the contribution approach.

4. A budgeted balance sheet as of June 30.

e. In a vertical analysis, a figure from this year's statement is compared with a base selected from the prior statement.

The cash acquired was immediately used to purchase equipment for $26,300 that had a $3,900 salvage value and an expected useful life of four years. The equipment was used to produce the following revenue stream (assume that all revenue transactions are for cash). At the beginning of the fifth year, the equipment was sold for $4,330 cash. Bensen uses straight-line depreciation.

Gulf States Manufacturing has the following data from year 1 operations, which are to be used for developing year 2 budget estimates:

All depreciation charges are fixed. Old manufacturing equipment with an annual depreciation charge of $16,050 will be replaced in year 2 with new equipment that will incur an annual depreciation charge of $22,500. Sales volume and prices are expected to increase by 11 percent and 7 percent, respectively. On a per-unit basis, expectations are that materials costs will increase by 9 percent and variable manufacturing costs will decrease by 2 percent. Fixed cash manufacturing costs are expected to decrease by 7 percent.

Variable marketing costs will change with volume. Administrative cash costs are expected to increase by 7 percent. Inventories are kept at zero. Gulf States operates on a cash basis.

Brandlin Company of Anaheim, California, sells parts to a foreign customer on December 1, 2017, with payment of 19,000 korunas to be received on March 1, 2018. Brandlin enters into a forward contract on December 1, 2017, to sell 19,000 korunas on March 1, 2018. Relevant exchange rates for the koruna on various dates are as follows:

Brandlin's incremental borrowing rate is 9 percent. The present value factor for two months at an annual interest rate of 9 percent (0.75 percent per month) is 0.9852. Brandlin must close its books and prepare financial statements at December 31.

1. You manage a production line that operates using a monthly production cycle. There are five different products that could be made this month. However, you only have 500 hours of line capacity, so you must be careful which products you select to make in the production cycle.

Making a product incurs two types of setup costs: (1) a material “tear down” cost (measured in dollars) and (2) downtime for line preparation (measured in hours). Any quantity up to the forecasted monthly demand can be sold. Additional production details are given in the table below:

1. Based on this information, design a monthly production schedule to maximize monthly profit. Your solution should identify which products to make and the quantities of each. (Assume the line is not currently set up to make any of these products; Set Optimality Gap to .1%)
2. If you could go to a two-month production cycle with the same monthly demands and the same monthly capacity, would you select different products and quantities? (Again assume the line is not currently set up to make any of these products; Set Optimality Gap to .1%)
