Question 7. Big Bob’s Discount Appliances expects sales of $5,000, $5,000, and $10,000 during April, May, and June (big sale in June). To build business, Big Bob lets all customers buy on credit, and all do so. In the past, 50% of Big Bob’s sales have been collected during the month of sale, 40% are collected the following month, and 10% the month after that. If this trend continues, what will be Big Bob’s total cash collections in the month of June?
Question 8. Little Louie’s expects to have $100 in cash on hand at the beginning of June, and the company’s target cash balance is $100. Net cash flow for June is minus $300.

Question 9. Ma & Pa Kettle’s Chili Company has begun selling a new chili recipe and they want you to help them with next year’s budgeted financial statements. Using the worksheet below, complete Ma & Pa’s forecast and answer the questions which follow.
Assumptions:
To begin with, Ma & Pa are sure sales will grow 50% next year. Assume that is true. Then assume that COGS, Current Assets, and Current Liabilities all vary directly with Sales (that means if sales grows a certain percentage, then the account in question will grow by that same percentage). Assume that fixed expenses will remain unchanged and that $1,000 worth of new Fixed Assets will be obtained next year. Lastly, the current dividend policy will be continued next year.
