Raber corp sales in the month of january = $170000 , which has 60% of sales on credit and 40% on cash basis,
Thus cash receipt for January = 40% of 170000 = $68000
Now, Receipts from the credit sales in January month:
1. For January - 25% of current month credit sales i.e $170000*60%* 25% = $ 25500
2. of December - 50 % of credit sales of december i.e $120000 * 60% * 50% = $36000
3. of November - 18% of credit sales of november i.e $ 85000 * 60% * 18% = $ 9180.
Thus the total cash receipt in January = $ 68000 + 25500 + 36000 + 9180
Total cash receipt in january = $ 138680.
Hence the correct option is ------C i.e $138680.
