Cairo’s, Inc., needs a cash budget for Year 3

Cairo’s, Inc., needs a cash budget for Year 3 and has provided you with the following information.• Sales are all on account (no cash) and are estimated to be collected over a three-month period, with 70 percent collected in the month of sale, 25 percent collected in the next month, and 4 percent collected in the third month. The remaining 1 percent is estimated to be uncollectible. December and November sales from Year 2 were $201,638 and $185,000, respectively.• Because of the lag in collecting cash from sales on account, MI delays payment on some of its purchases of materials. MI estimated that 60 percent of each month’s material purchases are paid in the month of purchase and 40 percent in the following month. The accounts payable balance for materials at the end of Year 2 was $20,000.• MI requires a minimum balance of $40,000 in cash at the end of each month. The company will use its line of credit when needed to bring the balance up to that minimum level. For any money borrowed, the interest rate is 6 percent compounded annually. For simplicity, you can assume that cash is borrowed on the first day of the month and that loan repayments are made at the end of the month. The loan payable balance at the end of Year 2 was zero. The cash balance at the end of Year 2 was $40,000.• Cairo’s, Inc. plans to exercise the option on the leased production equipment in March (see Part Seven).
