Timbers Department Store prepares its budgets quarterly. The following information is available for use in planning the second quarter budgets for 2022. Assets Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity Cash $4,000 Accounts payable $31,000 Accounts receivable 31,000 Dividends payable 15,000 Inventory 36,000 Prepaid insurance 3,000 Stockholders' equity 53,360 Fixtures 25,360 Total assets $99,360 Total liabilities and equity $99,360 TIMBERS DEPARTMENT STORE Balance Sheet March 31, 2022 Actual and forecasted sales for selected months in 2022 are as follows: Sales Revenue by Month Month Sales Revenue January $70,000 February 60,000 March 50,000 April 60,000 May 70,000 June 90,000 July 100,000 August 90,000 Monthly operating expenses are as follows: Category Amount Wages and salaries $27,000 Depreciation 300 Utilities 1,500 Rent 3,000 Cash dividends of $15,000 are declared during the third month of each quarter and are paid during the first month of the following quarter. Operating expenses, except insurance and depreciation, are paid as incurred. The prepaid insurance is for six more months. Cost of goods sold is equal to 50 percent of sales. Ending inventories are sufficient for 120 percent of the next month’s cost of goods sold. Purchases during any given month are paid in full during the following month. All sales are on account, with 50 percent collected during the month of sale, 40 percent during the next month, and 10 percent during the month thereafter. Cash Management Policy:  Money can be borrowed and repaid in multiples of $1,000 at an interest rate of 12 percent per year. For budgeting purposes the company uses simple interest for all interest calculations.  The company desires a minimum cash balance of $4,000 on the first of each month.  At the time the principal is repaid, interest is paid on the portion of principal that is repaid. All borrowing is at the beginning of the month, and all repayment is at the end of the month. Money is never repaid at the end of the month it is borrowed.  Any repayment of past borrowings can only occur if the monthly ending cash balance is greater than $10,000 (after partial or full repayment of past borrowing). Question: Give a summary of the just prepared budget for Timbers Department Store. Make sure you address the adequacy of the Cash Management Policy, and if necessary, suggest reasonable changes to this policy.

Budget analysis:
Budgeting is an important tool for preparation of future financial planning and is also used to perform variance analysis to track actual performance. The budget can be pre
pared in various heads such as sales budget, purchase budget, operating and other expenses budget and cash budget (E. Bond, 2021). The sales budget is used to estimate the sales forecast and purchase budget is prepared based on sales forecast and desired ending inventory. The purchase budget of the entity is as below:

The total budgeted sales of the entity for the quarter would be $220,000 and the COGS against sales revenue is $110,000 which is 50% of sales value. The entity is expected to maintain 60% of next month sales as closing inventory and the closing inventory will be $60,000 for June 2022. The total required purchase would be $134,000.
The total cash collection would be $56,000 for April month and $79,000 for June month which is showing a positive trend in collection from the customers. The expected collection for 2nd quarter is $199,000 which shows that the entity would be able to collect most of its sales revenue in cash and is a positive indicator for the organization. The cash collection schedule is as below:
