As the manager of the accounts receivable department for Beavis Leather Goods, Ltd., you recently noticed that Kelly Collins, your accounts receivable clerk who is paid $12000 per month, has been wearing unusually tasteful and expensive clothing. (This is Beavis's first year in business.) This morning, Collins drove up to work in a brand new Lexus. Naturally suspicious by nature, you decide to test the accuracy of the accounts receivable balance of $1,320,000 as shown in the ledger. The following information is available for your first year (precisely 9 months ended September 30, 2010) in business. Collections from customers .......................$1,980,000 Merchandise purchased................................3,600,000 Ending merchandise inventory........................900,000 Goods are marked to sell at 40% above cost. Please draft a memo dated on October 3, 20x7 to Jay Corales, the branch manager explaining the fact in this situation. Remember that this problem is serious and you do not want to make hasty accusations
