    - The cost of goods sold is 60% of sales.
    - The company purchases 80% of its merchandise in the month prior to the month of sale and 20% in the month of sale. Payment for merchandise is made in the month following the purchase.
    - Other monthly expenses to be paid in cash are $21,200.
    - Monthly depreciation is $21,000.

    Please do not EVER post more than one problem in the same thread like that. Right now I'm extremely confused over what problem is what cause you've got like 3-4 problems mixed up in the same thread. And I can already see you've got a post from one problem mixed up in the middle of other problems. How do you expect anyone to follow that?

    I've moved out what I know does not belong with the original thread. As soon as I figure out what are individual problems, I'm going to move them as well.

    Just to be quite frank, I almost didn't touch this thread AT ALL cause it was so confusing. Especially with the problems being so long to start with.

    Not to mention... you've posted the same answer 3 times, making it more stuff to have to go through.

    You can use ledger dots to make columns. You can put it in Excel and attach it.

    It would help if you'd say what is units. It took me a bit to figure out that two of the lines of figures were actually units (and only because they were so far off the receivables and didn't make sense).

    As for the disbursements, you've got the right idea. However, you've changed the S&A from 110,000 to 100,000 for unknown reasons. And it says per month, so what's the reasoning behind leaving it out of June?

    I'm not really following your calculations. I can see that the numbers are there, but could not follow your calculations. I'm just going by the totals.

    As for the collections, again I'm not really following the work cause of lack of columns. But the totals aren't right. I can also see that the numbers themselves just don't match any of mine. Where is the 90% and 5% coming from?

    What you should be doing, instead of posting problem after problem, is posting one problem -- then check and see if you are doing it correctly and get the guidance you need, then take that and try to apply it to another problem FIRST. Then return with another problem, showing what you've attempted and asking what further questions you have.

    Take what you learn from the other posts and come back to this one later and try to apply it. Once you've done that, post your attempts on this same thread.

    (Keep everything from the same problem in the same thread so it's all together. Put other problems in their own thread so as not to mix them up. The logic behind that is not that difficult.)
