Schedule of Cash Payments

Excel Learning Systems Inc. was organized on September 30, 2016. Projected selling and administrative expenses for each of the first three months of operations are as follows:

October	$87,400
November	83,000
December	75,500

Depreciation, insurance, and property taxes represent $19,000 of the estimated monthly expenses. The annual insurance premium was paid on September 30, and property taxes for the year will be paid in June. The company expects that 65% of the remainder of the expenses will be paid in the month in which they are incurred, with the balance to be paid in the following month.

Prepare a schedule indicating cash payments for selling and administrative expenses for October, November, and December.
