Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Budgeted sales and Cash Collections:

                                           January    February       March         April

Total sales                         $50,000    $60,000     $40,000    $30,000

Collections:

35% month of sales             17,500       21,000         14,000       10,500

45% month following                            22,500        27,000       18,000

20% second month                                                    10,000
