Answer 1

Answer:

Total cash collection= $1,053,200

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales:

April $970,000

May $1,070,000

June $1,120,000

Cash sales are normally 20% of total sales. Of the credit sales, 40% are collected in the same month as the sale, 55% are collected during the first month after the sale, and the remaining 5% are not collected.

To calculate the total cash collection for June, we need to use the following structure:

Cash collection June:

Sales in cash from June= (1,120,000*0.2)= 224,000

Sales in account from June= (1,120,000*0.8)*0.4= 358,400

Sales in account from May= (1,070,000*0.8)*0.55= 470,800

Total cash collection= $1,053,200
