Problem:
Chadmark Corporation's budgeted monthly sales are $3,000. 40 percent of its customers pay in the first month and take 2 percent discount. The remaining 60 percent pay in the month following the sale and don't receive a discount. Chadmark's bad debts are very small and are excluded from this analysis. Purchases for next months sales are constant each month at $1,500. Other payments for wages, rent, and taxes are constant at $700 per month. Construct a single months cash budget with the information given. What is the average cash gain or (loss) during a typical month for Chadmark Corporation?
