Overdraft facility that the company will require at the end of each month.
Answer
The figures given in the question
(a)
| 2023 | Sales | Purchases | Wages |
|---|---|---|---|
| February | 90,000 | 62,400 | 6,000 |
| March | 96,000 | 72,000 | 7,000 |
| April | 54,000 | 1,21,500 | 5,500 |
| May | 87,000 | 1,23,000 | 5,000 |
| June | 63,000 | 1,34,000 | 7,500 |
(b) 50% of the credit sales are realised in the month following the sales and remaining 50% in the second month following.
(c) Creditors are paid in the month following the month of purchase.
(d) Lag in the payment of wages : 1 month.
(e) Cash at bank on 1/4/2023 is estimated at Rs. 12,500.
For full marks, cover: the reading of the data (all sales on credit, collected half in each of the next two months; purchases and wages paid a month later); a schedule of collections from debtors; the cash budget for April, May and June 2023; the overdraft needed at the end of each month; and a conclusion.
| Month of sale | Sales (Rs) | April (Rs) | May (Rs) | June (Rs) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| February | 90,000 | 45,000 | ||
| March | 96,000 | 48,000 | 48,000 | |
| April | 54,000 | 27,000 | 27,000 | |
| May | 87,000 | 43,500 | ||
| Total, collections | 93,000 | 75,000 | 70,500 |
For example, April collects the second half of February's sales, 90,000 × 50/100 = 45,000. It also collects the first half of March's sales, 96,000 × 50/100 = 48,000. The first half of February's sales came in during March, before the budget period. June's own sales are collected in July and August.
| Particulars | April (Rs) | May (Rs) | June (Rs) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Opening balance (overdraft in brackets) | 12,500 | 26,500 | (25,500) |
| Add: Collections from debtors | 93,000 | 75,000 | 70,500 |
| Total, cash available | 1,05,500 | 1,01,500 | 45,000 |
| Particulars | April (Rs) | May (Rs) | June (Rs) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Payment to creditors, previous month's purchases | 72,000 | 1,21,500 | 1,23,000 |
| Payment of wages, previous month's wages | 7,000 | 5,500 | 5,000 |
| Total, payments | 79,000 | 1,27,000 | 1,28,000 |
| Closing balance (overdraft in brackets) | 26,500 | (25,500) | (83,000) |
| Month end | Bank balance or overdraft | Overdraft needed (Rs) |
|---|---|---|
| April | Balance of Rs 26,500 | 0 |
| May | Overdraft | 25,500 |
| June | Overdraft | 83,000 |
The company is manufacturing mostly for stock. Its purchases rise sharply from April, while collections fall because April's sales were low. So the overdraft grows quickly.
Conclusion. The company needs no overdraft at the end of April, when it has Rs 26,500 at the bank. It needs an overdraft of Rs 25,500 at the end of May and Rs 83,000 at the end of June. It should arrange a limit of at least Rs 83,000 with its bankers for the period.
