Case 8 30 Master Budget with Supporting Schedules [LO2, LO4, LO8, LO9, LO10] You have just been hired as a new management trainee by Earrings Unlimited, a distributor of earrings to various retail outlets located in shopping malls across the country. In the past, the company has done very little in the way of budgeting and at certain times of the year has experienced a shortage of cash. Since you are well trained in budgeting, you have decided to prepare comprehensive budgets for the upcoming second quarter in order to show management the benefits that can be gained from an integrated budgeting program. To this end, you have worked with accounting and other areas to gather the information assembled below. The company sells many styles of earrings, but all are sold for the same price”$12 per pair. Actual sales of earrings for the last three months and budgeted sales for the next six months follow (in pairs of earrings): January (actual) 21,200 June (budget) 51,200 February (actual) 27,200 July (budget) 31,200 March (actual) 41,200 August (budget) 29,200 April (budget) 66,200 September (budget) 26,200 May (budget) 101,200 The concentration of sales before and during May is due to Mother’s Day. Sufficient inventory should be on hand at the end of each month to supply 40% of the earrings sold in the following month. Suppliers are paid $6 for a pair of earrings. One half of a month’s purchases is paid for in the month of purchase; the other half is paid for in the following month. All sales are on credit, with no discount, and payable within 15 days. The company has found, however, that only 20% of a month’s sales are collected in the month of sale. An additional 70% is collected in the following month, and the remaining 10% is collected in the second month following sale. Bad debts have been negligible. Monthly operating expenses for the company are given below: Variable: Sales commissions 4 % of sales Fixed: Advertising $ 198,800 Rent $ 16,800 Salaries $ 104,800 Utilities $ 5,800 Insurance $ 1,800 Depreciation $ 12,800 Insurance is paid on an annual basis, in November of each year. The company plans to purchase $15,000 in new equipment during May and $38,800 in new equipment during June; both purchases will be for cash. The company declares dividends of $11,000 each quarter, payable in the first month of the following quarter. A listing of the company’s ledger accounts as of March 31 is given below: Assets Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity Cash $ 72,000 Accounts payable $ 153,600 Accounts receivable ($32,640 February sales; $395,520 March sales) 428,160 Dividends payable 11,000 Inventory 158,880 Capital stock 920,000 Prepaid insurance 22,200 Retained earnings 592,000 Property and equipment (net) 995,360 Total assets $ 1,676,600 Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity $ 1,676,600 The company maintains a minimum cash balance of $60,000. All borrowing is done at the beginning of a month; any repayments are made at the end of a month. The company has an agreement with a bank that allows the company to borrow in increments of $1,000 at the beginning of each month. The interest rate on these loans is 1% per month and for simplicity we will assume that interest is not compounded. At the end of the quarter, the company would pay the bank all of the accumulated interest on the loan and as much of the loan as possible (in increments of $1,000), while still retaining at least $60,000 in cash. Prepare a master budget for the three month period ending June 30. Include the following detailed budgets: Requirement 1: (a) A sales budget, by month and in total.
