1. What are the expected cash receipts in the month of November?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The expected cash receipts in the month of November are $160,600

Explanation:

Expected cash receipts in the month of November = 30% sales in the month of November + 65% sales in the month of October + 3% sales in the month of September.

Forward Company had sales in September of $120,000, in October of $140,000 , in November of $220,000

Expected cash receipts in the month of November = 30% x $220,000 + 65% x  $140,000 + 3% x $120,000 = $66,000 + $91,000 + $3,600 = $160,600
