Chapter 15, Problem 1P

Sunset Crafts Company sells handmade scarves for $28.50 per scarf. In FY 2023, total fixed costs are expected to be $185,000, and variable costs are estimated at $19.75 a unit. Sunset Crafts Company wants to have an FY 2023 operating income of $92,000. Use this information to determine the number of units of scarves that Sunset Crafts Company must sell in FY 2023 to meet this goal. (Don't round-up unit calculation)

Please explain the correct approach for solving this general accounting question.

Question: 22 - Hader company has actual sales of $82,000 in April and $63,000 in May. It expects sales of $78,000 in June and $92,000 in July and in August. Assuming that sales are the only source of cash inflows and that half of them are for cash and the remainder are collected evenly over the following 2 months, what are the firm's expected cash receipts for June, July, and August?
