Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer for cash sales is $15,577.1 and credit sales is $22,937.6

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Cash sales for July = $11,000

Increase rate = 19%

So, Cash sales for August = $11,000 × 119% = $13,090

Now, Cash sales for September = $13,090 × 119% = $15,577.1

Credit sales for July = $14,000

Increase rate = 28%

So, Credit sales for August = $14,000 × 128% = $17,920

Now, Credit sales for September = $17,920 × 128% = $22,937.6
