Explanation:
In April, the company purchased raw materials (Sugar and Peppermint) for $100,000. The entries posted are debit to Inventories and Credit to Cash account (both amounting to $100,000 each).
As such in April,
- Sales is zero
- Net income is zero
- Net cash flow is an outflow of $100,000 (used in the purchase of raw materials)
It produces its candy and sells it to distributors in May for $150,000, but it does not receive payment until June.
When the sale is made in May, the entries required is Debit accounts receivables $150,000 and Credit Sales revenue $150,000. Also, Debit cost of goods sold $100,000 and Credit Inventories $100,000.
Net income is the difference between sales and cost of sales.
As such in May,
- Sales is $150,000
- Net income is $500,00
- Net cash flow is zero
For June,
Payment for goods sold in May were received, entries posted are debit to cash account and a credit to accounts receivables (both balance sheet accounts), hence;
- Sales is zero
- Net income is zero
- Net cash flow is an inflow of $150,000 (amount received from customers)
