b. Sales are collected in the following pattern: 80% in the quarter in which the sale is made, 19% in the following quarter. On January 1, 1999, the company's balance sheet showed $60,000 in account receivables, all of which will be collected in the first quarter of the year 1999. Bad debts are projected at 1% of quarterly sales. There is a -0- balance in the AFDA account.

c. The company requires an ending inventory of finished units on hand at the end of each quarter equal to 20% of the budgeted sales for the next quarter. This requirement was met on December 31, 19×8.  (The company had 600 units on hand to start the new-year).

d. Two pounds (2lbs) of raw materials are required to complete one unit of product. The company requires an ending inventory of raw materials on hand at the end of each quarter equal to 10% of the production needs of the following quarter. This requirement was met on December 31, 19×8.  (The company had 620 lbs of raw materials on hand to start the new-year). Quarter 1 of the next year (year 2000) is estimated at 10,200 lbs needed for production.

e. The raw material costs $4.00 per pound. Purchases of raw material are paid for in the following pattern: 50% paid in the quarter in which the purchase was made, and the remaining 50% is paid in the following quarter. On January 1, 1999, the company's balance sheet showed $10,600 in accounts payable for raw material purchases.  All of which will be paid for in the first quarter of the year 1999.

f. Manufacturing overhead and selling & administrative expenses are paid in the quarter incurred.  The only exception is depreciation.

Variable costs fluctuate with production volume on the basis of the following rates per direct labor hour: indirect materials $1.00, indirect labor $1.40, utilities $0.40, and maintenance $0.20. Fixed costs per quarter are: Supervisory Salaries $20,000, Depreciation $3,800, Property Taxes & Insurance $9,000 and Maintenance $5,700. Overhead is applied to production on the basis of direct labor hours. The annual rate is $8 per hour.
