Question

 

 All sales are made on credit terms of net 30 days and are collected the following month and no bad debts are anticipated. The accounts receivable on the balance sheet at the end of September thus will be collected in October. The October sales will be collected in November, and so on. Inventory on hand represents a minimum operating level (or “safety” stock), which the company intends to maintain. Cost of goods sold average 80 percent of sales. Inventory is purchased in the month of sale and paid for in cash. Other cash expenses average 7 percent of sales. Depreciation is $10,000 per month. Assume taxes are paid monthly and the effective income tax rate is 40 percent for planning purposes. 

The annual interest rate on outstanding long-term debt and bank loans (notes payable) is 12%. There are no capital expenditures planned during the period, and no dividends will be paid. The company’s desired end-of-month cash balance is $80,000. The president hopes to meet any cash shortages during the period by increasing the firm’s notes payable to the bank. The interest rate on new loans will be 12 percent. 

  1. Prepare monthly pro forma balance sheets at the end of October, November, and December, 2020.
