Answer:

160

Explanation:

Given: CPI basket contain 400 oranges and 800 pens.

          In the base year, price of oranges is $1 and pen is $0.75.

          This year urban customer buy oranges at $2 each and pens at $1 each.

To find consumer price index (CPI), we need to check price of basket in current year and base year.

∴ Current year´s price for 400 oranges and 800 pens = 400\times 2= \$ 800\\800\times 1= \$ 800

Now, adding the price to get cost of basket

Cost of basket in current year= 800+800= \$ 1600

Base year´s price for 400 oranges and 800 pens= 400\times 1= \$ 400\\800\times 0.75= \$ 600

Cost of basket in base year= 400+600 = \$ 1000

Next, calculating the CPI of this year

Formula; CPI= \frac{\textrm{ Cost of basket in current year}}{\textrm{ cost of basket in the base year}} \times 100

CPI for the year = \frac{1600}{1000} \times 100 = 160

∴ Consumer price index (CPI) = 160.

Rama09 [41]

April           $300,000

May            $320,000

June           $370,000

Schedule of expected collections

For the month of June, 202x

Cash sales during June = $370,000 x 40% = $148,000

Collection from June's credit sales = $222,000 x 30% = $66,600

Collection from May's credit sales = $192,000 x 40% = $76,800

Collection from April's credit sales = $180,000 x 26% = $46,800

Total cash collections during June = $338,200

b) Month        DM purchases

April           $45,000

May            $54,000

June           $60,000

Schedule of expected cash payments for direct materials purchases

For the month of June, 202x

Cash purchases during June = $60,000 x 50% = $30,000

Cash payments for May's purchases = $27,000 x 40% = $10,800

Cash payments for April's purchases = $22,500 x 60% = $13,500

Total cash payments during June = $54,300

c) Month        Sales

April           $299,000

May            $337,000

June           $387,000

Schedule of expected collections

For the month of June, 202x

Cash sales during June = $370,000 x 40% = $148,000

Collection from June's credit sales = $222,000 x 30% = $66,600

Collection from May's credit sales = $192,000 x 50% = $96,000

Collection from April's credit sales = $180,000 x 18% = $32,400

Total cash collections during June = $343,000

It would be worth to pay the collector since the 2% reduction in uncollectible accounts is worth much more than the $1,000 that he/she earns.
