Montrose Instrumentation produces measurement equipment. One component, used in a variety of the company's products, is critical and the supply chain often breaks.

The vendor has a financing arrangement by which Montrose pays 40 percent of the purchase price in the month when the components are delivered and 60 percent in the following month. Montrose purchased 42,500 parts in January. Required: a. Estimate purchases of the component (in units) for February and March. b. Estimate the cash disbursements for the component in February and March.
