Cash receipts from customers: It represents the total amount of cash received from the sales as well as from the accounts receivables.

$\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Cash}\text{receipts}\text{from}\\ \text{Customers}\end{array}\right)=\text{Sales}\text{revenue }\left(\begin{array}{l}+\text{Decrease in Accounts Receivable}\\ \text{OR}\\ -\text{Increase in Accounts Receivable}\end{array}\right)$

Calculate the amount of cash receipts from customers.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Cash}\text{receipts}\text{from}\text{Customers}=\left(\begin{array}{c}\text{Sales}\text{revenue}\\ -\text{Increase in Accounts Receivable}\end{array}\right)\\ =\text{\$946,000}-\$25,000\\ =\$921,000\end{array}$

2.

Calculate the cash payments to suppliers.

Calculate the amount of cash payment made to employees.

Increase/ or decrease in wages payable = $0

$\begin{array}{c}\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Cash payments }\\ \text{for Wages}\end{array}\right)=\text{Wages expense}\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{+Decrease in wages payable}\\ \text{OR}\\ -\text{Increase in wages payable}\end{array}\right)\\ =\$203,000+/-\$0\\ =\$203,000\end{array}$

Calculate the amount of cash payment made for interest.

$\begin{array}{c}\begin{array}{l}\text{Cash payments }\\ \text{for interest}\end{array}\}=\left(\begin{array}{c}\text{Interest expense}\\ -\text{Increase in interest payable}\end{array}\right)\\ =\$12,000-\$5,000\\ =\$7,000\end{array}$
