Answer:
The answer is $ $250,000
Explanation:
From the question given, we find the budgeted accounts receivable balance at the end of February
Recall from the table,
The Khaki cooperation has the following data sales budgeted
January February March April
Cash sales.... $70,000 $90,000 $80,000 $70,000
Credit sales... $400,000 $350,000 $300,000 $320,000
The budgeted accounts receivables would be in agreement of the balance amount (10%) for January credit sales will remain undone at the end of February and 60% of the February credit sales.
The formula for calculating the budgeted accounts receivable on February ending can be derived as follows:
We apply the formula for budgeted accounts receivable on February ending as :
The Accounts Budgeted Receivable (February ending) = January Credit Sales x 10% + February Credit Sales x 60%
Now,
From the information gotten above, we now have
Budgeted Accounts Receivable (February ) = 400,000 x 10% + 350,000 x 60% = $250,000
It is important to note that,
At the month of January out of the credit sales of $400,00 , 40% will be taken in January itself and 50% will get taken in February. The balance 10% will remain unresolved at February ending.
Also for the month of February, out of the credit sales of $350,000 ,40% will be taken or received in February, and the remainder of 60% will still be at the end of February.
