ABC is in its 4th year of operations. The company is experiencing cash flow issues and would like to utilize a budget to forecast cash flows. You are an outside consultant hired to assist in designing a model that ABC can utilize on an ongoing basis to forecast cash flow. The president of the company, Ms. Dream, has predicted an increase in sales of two percent per month from December 2014 through March 2015 Mr. Dream believes that after March, sales will remain steady through June 2015. The projected balance sheet for ABC as of December 31, 2015 is shown below: Cash $ 20,000 A/receivable 208,748 Marketable securities 25,000 Inventory 25,750 Buildings & equipment (net of accumulated depreciation) 225,000 Total assets $ 504,498 A/payable $ 101,384 Sales commissions payable 6,885 Bond interest payable 4,800 Property taxes payable 0 Bonds payable (4%- due in 2020) 360,000 Common stock 10,000 Retained earnings 21,429 Total liabilities and stockholders' equity $ 504,498 You will need the following information to prepare a master budget for the first quarter of 2015: 1) Projected sales for November 2015 are $225,000. Credit sales comprise 95% of total sales. Sales collected in the month of sale total 15%, in the month following the month of sale total 70%, and in the second month following the month of sale total 13%. Remaining sales are uncollectible. 2) Cost of goods sold total 55% of sales. Inventory purchases are made on account. Purchases paid for in the month of purchase total 20% and purchases paid for in the month following the month of purchase total 80%. Ending monthly Inventory is maintained at 20% of the following month’s projected cost of goods. 3) Projected monthly expenses include: Sales salaries $ 60,000 Advertising and promotion 4,000 Administrative salaries 25,000 Depreciation 3,000 Interest on bonds 1,200 Property taxes 1,500 Sales commissions of 3.0 percent of sales are paid in the month following the month of sale. 4) Additional manufacturing equipment would allow the company to increase production. The cost of the new equipment is $150,000. Ms. Dream plans on purchasing the equipment on January 1st and plans on paying for the equipment with cash and by liquidating the company’s marketable securities. Mr. Clark wishes to maintain a minimum cash balance of $15,000 at the end of each month. If necessary, he plans on obtaining a short-term note payable from a local bank. The minimum lending period for such a loan is three months. The current short-term interest rate is 7 percent per year and is expected to remain at this rate through the time the equipment is purchased. Mr. Clark would like to pay off the loan as quickly as possible. Payments must be made in $1,000 increments. 5) The board of directors would like to declare and pay dividends of $125,000 on the last day of each quarter. 6) The interest on any short-term borrowing will be paid when the loan is repaid. Interest on the bond payable is paid semiannually on February 28 and August 31 for the preceding six-month period. 7) Property taxes are paid quarterly on March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 for the preceding three-month period. Required: Assist ABC by building a model to forecast cash flow. Set up your model for the first quarter of 2015. The model should contain the master budget schedules shown below. Round all amounts to the nearest dollar. The model should allow ABC to change the assumptions provided above and quickly recalculate the forecasted cash balance at March 31, 2015.
