Paymore’s labor and administrative expenses are $71 per quarter and interest on long-term debt is $46 per quarter. Paymore’s cash balance at the start of the first quarter is $40 and its minimum acceptable cash balance is $30. Assume that Paymore can borrow up to $342 from a line of credit at an interest rate of 2% per quarter. On average, one-third of sales are collected in the quarter that they are sold, and two-thirds are collected in the following quarter. Assume that sales in the last quarter of the previous year were $342. Also, one third of the orders are paid for in the current month and then two thirds of the next quarter's orders are paid in advance. Prepare a short-term financing plan using the above table.

Three grams of musk oil are required for each bottle of Mink Caress, a very popular perfume made by a small company in western Siberia. The cost of the musk oil is $1.50 per gram. Budgeted production of Mink Caress is given below by quarters for Year 2 and for the first quarter of Year 3.

Musk oil has become so popular as a perfume ingredient that it has become necessary to carry large inventories as a precaution against all stock-outs. For this reason the inventory of musk oil at the end of the quarter must be equal to 20% of the following quarter's production needs. Some 36,000 grams of musk oil will be on hand to start the first quarter of year 2.

Required:

prepare a direct materials budget for musk oil, by quarter and in total, for year 2.
