The desired ending cash balance is $51,000. The excess (deficiency) of cash available over disbursements for June will be:

Answer 1

Answer:

The excess cash available will be $30,000  

Explanation:

The following information were given:

beginning cash balance = $29,000

budgeted cash receipt = $187,000

budgeted cash disbursement = $186,000

desired ending cash balance = $51,000

required = excess (deficiency) of cash available over disbursement.

To calculate the excess (deficiency) of cash available over disbursement, disbursements will be deducted from all the cash received and available, if the difference is positive, then the cash available is excess, if negative, then the cash available is deficiency. This is calculated as follows

Total cash available = beginning cash balance + budgeted cash receipt

= 29,000 + 187,000 = $216,000

Total disbursements = $186,000

∴Excess (deficiency) of cash available = 216,000 - 186,000 =$30,000 (excess)
