Exercise 8-1 Schedule of Expected Cash Collections [LO8-2]

Silver Company makes a product that is very popular as a Mother’s Day gift. Thus, peak sales occur in May of each year, as shown in the company’s sales budget for the second quarter given below:

April May June Total
Budgeted sales (all on account) $440,000 $640,000 $220,000 $1,300,000

From past experience, the company has learned that 30% of a month’s sales are collected in the month of sale, another 60% are collected in the month following sale, and the remaining 10% are collected in the second month following sale. Bad debts are negligible and can be ignored. February sales totaled $370,000, and March sales totaled $400,000.

1. Prepare a schedule of expected cash collections from sales, by month and in total, for the second quarter.

2. What is the accounts receivable balance on June 30th?

The company is now in the process of preparing a production budget for the second quarter. Past experience has shown that end-of-month inventory levels must equal 10% of the following month’s unit sales. The inventory at the end of March was 6,200 units.

Three grams of musk oil are required for each bottle of Mink Caress, a very popular perfume made by a small company in western Siberia. The cost of the musk oil is $1.90 per gram. Budgeted production of Mink Caress is given below by quarters for Year 2 and for the first quarter of Year 3:

Year 2 Year 3
First Second Third Fourth First
Budgeted production, in bottles 68,000 98,000 158,000 108,000 78,000

Musk oil has become so popular as a perfume ingredient that it has become necessary to carry large inventories as a precaution against stock-outs. For this reason, the inventory of musk oil at the end of a quarter must be equal to 20% of the following quarter’s production needs. Some 40,800 grams of musk oil will be on hand to start the first quarter of Year 2.

Required:

Prepare a direct materials budget for musk oil, by quarter and in total, for Year 2.
