Answer (C) is correct . The solution is to work backward from the $22,000 cash balance on May 1 by deducting collections and adding disbursements for April. The collections for April were: Month Sales % Expected Collections April $78,000 70 $54,600 March 60,000 20 12,000 ? February 66,000 9 5,940 Total $72,540 The disbursements for April were: March purchases $36,000
Answer (A) is incorrect because The expected collections for April is $72,540. Answer (B) is incorrect because The ending cash balance is $22,000. Answer (D) is incorrect because The amount of $(2,540) ignores the 2% cash discount.
