Question

Moorcroft’s assistant controller suggested that Moorcroft hire a part time collector to encourage customers to pay more promptly and to reduce the amount of uncollectible accounts. Sales are still 40% cash and 60% credit but the assistant controller predicted that this would cause credit sales to be collected 30% in the month of the sale, 50% in the month following sale, and 18% in the second month following sale; 2% are uncollectible.

Prepare a schedule of expected collections from customers for June. How did these changes impact cash collections?
