Answer: 20,000 lawn mowers
Explanation:
The formula for calculating the number of lawn mowers needed to reached the budgeted profit levels is:
= (Fixed costs + Budgeted profit) / Contribution margin
Contribution margin = Selling price - Variable cost
= 40 - (14 + 8 + 5)
= 40 - 27
= $13
Number of lawn-mowers required:
= (140,000 + 120,000) / 13
= 20,000 lawn mowers

Answer:
-$20,000 short fall
Explanation:
July:
Total cash available:
= Cash balance + Cash collections
= $12,000 + $67,000
= $79,000
End cash:
= Total cash available - Cash payments
= $79,000 - (33,000 + 12,000)
= $79,000 - $45,000
= $34,000
August:
Total cash available:
= Cash balance + Cash collections
= $34,000 + $33,000
= $67,000
End cash:
= Total cash available - Cash payments
= $67,000 - (34,000 + 20,000 + 33,000)
= $67,000 - $87,000
= -$20,000 (Short fall)
