Preparing a financial budget
This problem continues the Davis
Consulting, Inc. situation from Problem P21-63 of
Chapter 21. Assume Davis Consulting
began January with $29,000 cash. Management
forecasts that cash receipts from
credit customers will be $49,000 in January and
$51,500 in February. Projected cash
payments include equipment purchases ($17,000
in January and $40,000 in February)
and selling and administrative expenses ($6,000
each month).
Davis’s bank requires a $20,000
minimum balance in the firm’s checking account.
At the end of any month when the
account balance falls below $20,000,
the bank automatically extends
credit to the firm in multiples of $5,000. Davis
borrows as little as possible and
pays back loans each month in $1,000 increments,
plus 5% interest on the entire
unpaid principal. The first payment occurs one
month after the loan.
Requirements
1.Prepare Davis Consulting’s cash budget for January and
February 2013.
2.How much cash will Davis borrow in February if cash
receipts from customers
that month total $21,500 instead of $51,500?
