You have just been hired as a management trainee by Cravat SalesCompany, a nationwide distributor of a designer�s silk ties. Thecompany has an exclusive franchise on the distribution of the ties,and sales have grown so rapidly over the last few years that it hasbecome necessary to add new members to the management team. Youhave been given responsibility for all planning and budgeting. Yourfirst assignment is to prepare a master budget for the next threemonths, starting April 1. You are anxious to make a favorableimpression on the president and have assembled the informationbelow.

The company desires a minimumending cash balance each month of $10,000. The ties are sold toretailers for $8 each. Recent and forecasted sales in units are asfollows:

January(actual)	25,000	June	67,000
February(actual)	33,000	July	47,000
March (actual)	35,000	August	40,000
April	36,000	September	39,000
May	54,000

The large buildup in sales before and during June is due toFather�s Day. Ending inventories are supposed to equal 90% of thenext month�s sales in units. The ties cost the company $5 each.

Purchases are paid for as follows:50% in the month of purchase and the remaining 50% in the followingmonth. All sales are on credit, with no discount, and payablewithin 15 days. The company has found, however, that only 25% of amonth�s sales are collected by month-end. An additional 50% iscollected in the following month, and the remaining 25% iscollected in the second month following sale. Bad debts have beennegligible.

The company�s monthly sellingand administrative expenses are given below:

Variable:
Sales commissions		$ 1	per tie
Fixed:
Wages and salaries	$	22,700
Utilities	$	16,900
Insurance	$	1,000
Depreciation	$	1,500
Miscellaneous	$	3,100

All selling and administrativeexpenses are paid during the month, in cash, with the exception ofdepreciation and insurance expired. Land will be purchased duringMay for $21,000 cash. The company declares dividends of $12,000each quarter, payable in the first month of the following quarter.The company�s balance sheet at March 31 is given below:

Assets
Cash	$	15,000
Accounts receivable($66,000 February sales; $210,000 March sales)		276,000
Inventory (32,400units)		162,000
Prepaidinsurance		12,000
Fixed assets, net ofdepreciation		123,150

Dividendspayable		12,000
Capital stock		300,000
Retainedearnings		186,400
Total liabilitiesand stockholders� equity	$	588,150

The company has an agreement witha bank that allows it to borrow in increments of $1,000 at thebeginning of each month, up to a total loan balance of $130,000.The interest rate on these loans is 1% per month, and forsimplicity, we will assume that interest is not compounded. At theend of the quarter, the company would pay the bank all of theaccumulated interest on the loan and as much of the loan aspossible (in increments of $1,000), while still retaining at least$10,000 in cash.
