Amount of purchases = ($320,000 x 1.09) + $34,000 - $33,000

Amount of purchases = $348,800 + $34,000 — $33,000

Amount of purchases = $349,800

Therefore, the amount of purchases budgeted for July is $349,800.

Amount of cash paid in July = Opening accounts receivable + 75% of purchases in July

Amount of cash paid in July = $37,000 + ($349,800 × 0.75)

Amount of cash paid in July = $37,000 + $262,350
