Answer:

Accounts Receivable reported on the company’s budgeted balance sheet as of July 31 = $144,160

Explanation:

Credit sales = 40% of Total sales for the month.

Provided the accounts receivable shall be collected as follows:

20% in the same month

70% in next month

10% in the second next month

Now balance outstanding at the end of July of accounts receivable shall be:

Credit Sales for June = $420,000 X 40% = $168,000

Out of which 20% is collected in June itself.

70% in July and only 10% is outstanding = $168,000 X 10% = $16,800

From the sale of July we have

20% paid in the month itself

Remaining 80% is outstanding

Credit sales = $398,000 X 40% = $159,200

Outstanding at month end = $159,200 X 80% = $127,360

Net outstanding at 31 July = $16,800 + $127,360 = $144,160
