Preparing a financial budget—schedule of cash receipts and schedule of cash payments

Agua Cool is a distributor of bottled water. For each of the items, compute the amount of cash receipts or payments Agua Cool will budget for September. The solution to one item may depend on the answer to an earlier item.

a. Management expects to sell equipment that cost \(14,000 at a gain of \)7,000. Accumulated depreciation on this equipment is \(5,000.

b. Management expects to sell 7,100 cases of water in August and 9,000 cases in September. Each case sells for \)14. Cash sales average 20% of total sales, and credit sales make up the rest. Three-fourths of credit sales are collected in the month of the sale, with the balance collected the following month.

c. The company pays rent and property taxes of $4,500 each month. Commissions and other selling expenses average 30% of sales. Agua Cool pays one-half of commissions and other selling expenses in the month incurred, with the balance paid the following month.

Preparing an operating budget—direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead budgets

Grady, Inc. manufactures model airplane kits and projects production at 650, 500, 450, and 600 kits for the next four quarters. Direct materials are 4 ounces of plastic per kit and the plastic costs \(1 per ounce. Indirect materials are considered insignificant and are not included in the budgeting process. Beginning Raw Materials Inventory is 850 ounces, and the company desires to end each quarter with 10% of the materials needed for the next quarter’s production. Grady desires a balance of 200 ounces in Raw Materials Inventory at the end of the fourth quarter. Each kit requires 0.10 hours of direct labor at an average cost of \)10 per hour. Manufacturing overhead is allocated using direct labor hours as the allocation base. Variable overhead is \(0.20 per kit, and fixed overhead is \)165 per quarter. Prepare Grady’s direct materials budget, direct labor budget, and manufacturing overhead budget for the year. Round the direct labor hours needed for production, budgeted overhead costs, and predetermined overhead allocation rate to two decimal places. Round other amounts to the nearest whole number.
