6-38 (30 min.) Cash budgeting, chapter appendix.
Retail outlets purchase snowboards from Skulas, Inc., throughout the year. However, in
anticipation of late summer and early fall purchases, outlets ramp up inventories from May through
August. Outlets are billed when boards are ordered. Invoices are payable within 60 days. From
past experience, Skulas’ accountant projects 40% of invoices will be paid in the month invoiced,
45% will be paid in the following month, and 15% of invoices will be paid two months after the
month of invoice. The average selling price per snowboard is $650.
To meet demand, Skulas increases production from April through July because the snowboards
are produced a month prior to their projected sale. Direct materials are purchased in the month of
production and are paid for during the following month (terms are payment in full within 30 days
of the invoice date). During this period there is no production for inventory and no materials are
purchased for inventory.
Direct manufacturing labor and manufacturing overhead are paid monthly. Variable
manufacturing overhead is incurred at the rate of $7 per direct manufacturing labor-hour. Variable
marketing costs are driven by the number of sales visits. However, there are no sales visits during
the months studied. Skulas, Inc., also incurs fixed manufacturing overhead costs of $7,500 per
month and fixed nonmanufacturing overhead costs of $4,500 per month.
The beginning cash balance for July 1, 2015, is $14,000. On October 1, 2014, Skulas had a cash
crunch and borrowed $60,000 on a 12% one-year note with interest payable monthly. The note is
due October 1, 2015.
Required:
1. Prepare a cash budget for the months of July through September 2015. Show supporting
schedules for the calculation of receivables and payables.
2. Will Skulas be in a position to pay off the $60,000 one-year note that is due on October 1,
2015? If not, what actions would you recommend to Skulas’ management?
3. Suppose Skulas is interested in maintaining a minimum cash balance of $14,000. Will the
company be able to maintain such a balance during all three months analyzed? If not, suggest
a suitable cash management strategy.
4. Why do Skulas’ managers prepare a cash budget in addition to the revenue, expenses, and
operating income budget?

2. Yes. Skulas has a budgeted cash balance of $179,990 on 9/30/2015, and so it will be in a
position to pay off the $60,000 1-year note on October 1, 2015.
3. No. Skulas does not maintain a $14,000 minimum cash balance in July. To maintain a
$14,000 cash balance in each of the three months, it could perhaps encourage its customers to pay
earlier by offering a discount. Alternatively, Skulas could seek short-term credit from a bank.
4. Skulas’ managers prepare a cash budget in addition to the operating income budget to plan
cash flows to ensure that the company has adequate cash to pay vendors, meet payroll, and pay
operating expenses as these payments come due. Skulas could be very profitable on an accrual
accounting basis, but the pattern of cash receipts from revenues might be delayed and result in
insufficient cash being available to make scheduled payments for its expenses. Skulas’ managers
may then need to initiate a plan to borrow money to finance any shortfall. Building a profitable
operating plan does not guarantee that adequate cash will be available, so Skulas’ managers need
to prepare a cash budget in addition to an operating income budget.
6-39 (40–50 min.) Cash budgeting.
On December 1, 2014, the Iaia Wholesale Co. is attempting to project cash receipts and
disbursements through January 31, 2015. On this latter date, a note will be payable in the amount
of $107,000. This amount was borrowed in September to carry the company through the seasonal
peak in November and December.
Selected general ledger balances on December 1 are:
6-4
Sales terms call for a 3% discount if payment is made within the first 10 days of the month after
sale, with the balance due by the end of the month after sale. Experience has shown that 50% of
the billings will be collected within the discount period, 30% by the end of the month after
purchase, and 15% in the following month. The remaining 5% will be uncollectible. There are no
cash sales.
The average selling price of the company’s products is $170 per unit. Actual and projected
sales are:
All purchases are payable within 15 days. Approximately 60% of the purchases in a month are
paid that month and the rest the following month. The average unit purchase cost is $130. Target
ending inventories are 570 units plus 20% of the next month’s unit sales.
Total budgeted marketing, distribution, and customer-service costs for the year are $670,000.
Of this amount, $155,000 are considered fixed (and include depreciation of $43,400). The
remainder varies with sales. Both fixed and variable marketing, distribution, and customer-service
costs are paid as incurred.
Required:
1. Prepare a cash budget for December 2014 and January 2015. Supply supporting schedules for
collections of receivables; payments for merchandise; and marketing, distribution, and
customer-service costs.
2. Why do Iaia’s managers prepare a cash budget in addition to the operating income budget?

2. Iaia’s managers prepare a cash budget in addition to the operating income budget to plan
cash flows to ensure that the company has adequate cash to pay vendors, meet payroll, and pay
operating expenses as these payments come due. Iaia could be very profitable on an accrual
accounting basis, but the pattern of cash receipts from revenues might be delayed and result in
insufficient cash being available to make scheduled payments for its expenses. Iaia’s managers
may then need to initiate a plan to borrow money to finance any shortfall. Building a profitable
operating plan does not guarantee that adequate cash will be available, so Iaia’s managers need to
prepare a cash budget in addition to an operating income budget. For example, the cash budget
helps Iaia’s managers recognize that Iaia will not be able to repay the note in the amount of
$107,000 when it comes due on January 15, 2015. The cash budget prompts Iaia’s managers to
start making other arrangements for this loan, either by extending its terms or borrowing cash from
elsewhere to pay it back.

6-40 (60 min.) Comprehensive problem; ABC manufacturing, two products.
Hazlett, Inc., operates at capacity and makes plastic combs and hairbrushes. Although the combs
and brushes are a matching set, they are sold individually and so the sales mix is not 1:1. Hazlett’s
management is planning its annual budget for fiscal year 2015. Here is information for 2015:
Hazlett accounts for direct materials using a FIFO cost flow.
6-8
Hazlett uses a FIFO cost flow assumption for finished goods inventory.
Combs are manufactured in batches of 200, and brushes are manufactured in batches of 100. It
takes 20 minutes to set up for a batch of combs and 1 hour to set up for a batch of brushes.
Hazlett uses activity-based costing and has classified all overhead costs as shown in the
following table. Budgeted fixed overhead costs vary with capacity. Hazlett operates at capacity so
budgeted fixed overhead cost per unit equals the budgeted fixed overhead costs divided by the
budgeted quantities of the cost allocation base.
Delivery trucks transport units sold in delivery sizes of 1,000 combs or 1,000 brushes.
Required:
Do the following for the year 2015:
1. Prepare the revenues budget.
2. Use the revenues budget to:
a. Find the budgeted allocation rate for marketing costs.
b. Find the budgeted number of deliveries and allocation rate for distribution costs.
3. Prepare the production budget in units.
4. Use the production budget to:
a. Find the budgeted number of setups and setup-hours and the allocation rate for setup costs.
b. Find the budgeted total machine-hours and the allocation rate for processing costs.
c. Find the budgeted total units produced and the allocation rate for inspection costs.
5. Prepare the direct material usage budget and the direct material purchases budgets in both units
and dollars; round to whole dollars.
6. Use the direct material usage budget to find the budgeted allocation rate for materials-handling
costs.
7. Prepare the direct manufacturing labor cost budget.
8. Prepare the manufacturing overhead cost budget for materials handling, setup, processing, and
inspection costs.
9. Prepare the budgeted unit cost of ending finished goods inventory and ending inventories
budget.
10. Prepare the cost of goods sold budget.
11. Prepare the nonmanufacturing overhead costs budget for marketing and distribution.
12. Prepare a budgeted income statement (ignore income taxes).
13. How does preparing the budget help Hazlett’s management team better manage the company?
