Answer:

$81,000

Explanation:

                           Accounts Receivable Budget

April Accounts Receivable = 10% x 130,000 = $13,000

May Accounts Receivable = 40% x 170,000 = $68,000

Total Accounts Receivables = $(13,000 + 68,000)

Total Accounts Receivables = $81,000

Note: For April: 60% will be collected in the month of April, 30% will be collected in the month of May. Therefore, 10% of credit sale will be uncollected during May.

For May: 60% will be collected in the month of May; therefore, 40% will be uncollected on the month of May.

For March: 60% will be collected on March, 30% will be collected on April, and 10% will be collected on May. Therefore, there will be no accounts receivable balance for March.
