Answer 1

Answer:

b) $22, 326 and $16, 900

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Budgeted cash sales

July cash sales

=  $15,000

August sales

= July sales +  July cash sales × monthly increase

= $15,000 + $15,000 × 22%

= $15,000 + $3,300

= $18,300

September sales

= August sales + august sales × monthly increase

= $18,300 + $18,300 × 22%

= $18,300 + $4,026

= $22,326

Budgeted credit sales

July cash sales

=  $10,000

August sales

= July sales +  July cash sales × monthly increase

= $10,000 + $10,000 × 30%

= $10,000 + $3,000

= $13,000

September sales

= August sales + august sales × monthly increase

= $13,000 + $13,000 × 30%

= $13,000 + $3,900

= $16,900
