Collections of accounts receivable
$285,000 $328,900
[$51,000+($450,000*65%*80%)=$285,000]
[($450,000*65%*20)+($520,000*65%*80%)=$328,900]
Total cash receipts $442,500 $510,900
($157,500+$285,000=$442,500)
($182,000+$328,900=$510,900)
Estimated cash payments for:

Cash balance at end of month $26,000 $154,400
(-$19,000+$45,000=$26,000)

Minimum cash balance $20,000 $20,000
Excess (deficiency) $6,000 $134,400
($26,000-$20,000=$6,000)
($154,400-$20,000=$134,400)
Therefore The monthly cash budget for March and April will be :
March $6,000
