Cash Budget from April to June

April

*Oxygen sales - $8,000 - Credit Card (97%) + Cash (3%) received before end of day

Cash inflow = $8,000

*Service cash inflow - $4,200 - Credit Sales received this month (60%) + $4,000 credit sales received from last month sales (40%)

Cash inflow = $2,520 + $1,600 = $4,120

Total inflow = $12,120

May

*Oxygen sales - $7,500 - Credit Card (97%) + Cash (3%) received before end of day

Cash inflow = $7,500

*Service cash inflow - $4,400 - Credit Sales received this month (60%) + $4,200 credit sales received from last month sales (40%)

Cash inflow = $2,640 + $1,680 = $4,320

Total inflow = $11,820

June

*Oxygen sales - $9,000 - Credit Card (97%) + Cash (3%) received before end of day

Cash inflow = $9,000

*Service cash inflow - $4,600 - Credit Sales received this month (60%) + $4,400 credit sales received from last month sales (40%)

Cash inflow = $2,760 + $1,760 = $4,420

Total inflow = $13,420

2a.

Expected expenditure = $11,000

Deduct: Opening cash Balance = $400

Add: Cash Balance projection = $250

= Minimum Cash inflow from Revenue in May 2018 = $10,850

Actual Cash inflow in May = $11,820

2b.i.

May (adjusted inflow)

*Oxygen sales - $6,750 - Credit Card (97%) + Cash (3%) received before end of day

Cash inflow = $6,750

*Service cash inflow - $3,960 - Credit Sales received this month (60%) + $4,200 credit sales received from last month sales (40%)

Cash inflow = $2,376 + $1,680 = $4,056

Adjusted Cash inflow = $10,806

Note:

Expected expenditure = $11,000

Deduct: Opening cash Balance = $400

Add: Cash Balance projection = $250

= Minimum Cash inflow from Revenue in May 2018 = $10,850

Actual Cash inflow in May (adjusted inflow) = $10,806

2b.ii.

Expected expenditure = $11,550

Deduct: Opening cash Balance = $400

Add: Cash Balance projection = $250

= Minimum Cash inflow from Revenue in May 2018 = $11,400

Actual Cash inflow in May = $11,820
