OfficeMart Inc. has "cash and carry" customers and credit customers. OfficeMart estimates that 20% of monthly sales are to cash customers, while the remaining sales are to credit customers. Of the credit customers, 25% pay their accounts in the month of sale, while the remaining 75% pay their accounts in the month following the month of sale. Projected sales for the next three months are as follows:

October	$107,000
November	134,000
December	196,000

The Accounts Receivable balance on September 30 was $72,000.
