Cash sales during June = $370,000 x 40% = $148,000
Collection from June's credit sales = $222,000 x 30% = $66,600
Collection from May's credit sales = $192,000 x 40% = $76,800
Collection from April's credit sales = $180,000 x 26% = $46,800
Total cash collections during June = $338,200
b) Month DM purchases
April $45,000
May $54,000
June $60,000

Cash payments for May's purchases = $27,000 x 40% = $10,800
Cash payments for April's purchases = $22,500 x 60% = $13,500
Total cash payments during June = $54,300
