Answer:
$38,400
Explanation:
<em>1. Cash Purchases:</em>
The total purchases in the month of March is of $35,000.
It is given that 70% of Purchases are for cash.
Hence, 70% of $35,000 would be;
$39,000 x 0.70
$27,300
<em>2. Credit Purchases: </em>
Remaining Balance of Purchases from the month of February:
For the month of February Cash Purchases can be calculated as follows;
$37,000 x 0.70
$25,900
Remaining Balance to be paid in March for the month of February can be calculated as follows;
$37,000 - $25,900
$11,100
<em>3. CASH PAYMENT for PURCHASES in MARCH:</em>
Cash Purchases = $27,300
Credit Purchases = $11,100
Hence;
<em>Cash Payment for purchases in March = Cash Purchases + Credit Purchases </em>
Cash Payment for purchases in March = $27,300 + $11,100
Cash Payment for purchases in March = $38,400
