Answer:
If we are talking about corporate spending, then it's best to cut overhead costs, because direct labor or direct materials are harder to cut since a cut in these areas would cause a reduction in output production.
If we are talking about personal spending, then, it's best to cut sumptuary expenses like eating out, or taking expensive vacations. Utilities, rent, and debt are harder to cut.
Answer:
$13,400
Explanation:
The movement in cash balance over a period is as a result of receipts and disbursements over the period. This may be expressed mathematically as
Opening balance + receipts - disbursements = closing balance
If the company wants to maintain a desired closing balance, the amount to be borrowed would form part of the receipts
$19,200 + receipts - $190,400 = $31,200
Receipts = $190,400 + $31,200 - $19,200
= $202,400
Given Budgeted cash receipts total $189,000 then amount to be borrowed
= $202,400 - $189,000
= $13,400
Increased
It’s a positive number
