January to March. Sales in December (20x3) were Br. 75, 000. Monthly sales for the first
four months of the next year (20x4) are forecasted as follows:
January Br. 70, 000
February 90, 000
March 80, 000
April 60, 000
Normally 70% of sales are on cash and the remainders are credit sales. All credit sales are
collected in the month following the sales. Uncollectible accounts are negligible and are to be
ignored. Because deliveries from suppliers and customer demand are uncertain, at the end of
any month ABC wants to have a basic inventory of Br. 15, 000 plus 70% of the expected cost
of goods to be sold in the following month. The cost of merchandise sold averages 75%of
sales. The purchase terms available to the company are net 30 days. Each month’s purchase
are paid as follows:
60% during the month of purchase and,
40% during the month following the purchases
