Explanation:

                                         P2 Jasper Company

                                     Budgeted cash Receipt

                                           For the 2nd quarter

                                                           April                   May                  June

Accounts Receivable                        $400,000

70% in the month of Sale                  $367,500          $374,500      $392,000

30% in the month after Sale                                        $110,250        $112,350

Budgeted cash receipt                     $767,500           $484,750       $504,350

Total budgeted cash receipt for the 2nd quarter = $767,500 + $484,750 + $504,350 = $1,756,600.

30% in the month after sale means 30% amount will be received in the following month.
