Chapter 14, Problem 14E

Exercise 7-14A Determining amount to borrow and pro forma statement balances

Lois Bragg owns a small restaurant in Boston. Ms. Bragg provided her accountant with the following summary information regarding expectations for the month of June. The balance in accounts receivable as of May 31 is $40,000. Budgeted cash and credit sales for June are $100,000 and $250,000, respectively. Credit sales are made through Visa and MasterCard and are collected rapidly. Eighty percent of credit sales is collected in the month of sale, and the remainder is collected in the following month. Ms. Bragg’s suppliers do not extend credit. Consequently, she pays suppliers on the last day of the month. Cash payments for June arc expected to be $330,000. Ms. Bragg has a line of credit that enables the restaurant to borrow funds on demand; however, they must be borrowed on the last day of the month. Interest is paid in cash also on the last day of the month. Ms. Bragg desires to maintain a $15,000 cash balance before the interest payment. Her annual interest rate is 9 percent.
