Answer 1

Answer:

$127,000

Explanation:

Cash sales=1-80%=20%*$800,000=$160,000.00  

Credit sales collection=($800,000-$160,000)*70%=$448,000.00  

Accounts receivable from previous year=$9,000

Total cash receipts=$160,000+$448,000+$9,000=$ 617,000.00  

Total cash payments= cash expenditure+loan payment

cash expenditures is $475,000

loan payment is $15,000

total cash payments=$475,000+$15,000=$490,000

excess of cash receipts over cash disbursements=$617,000-$490,000=$127,000
