Question - Brighton, Inc., manufactures kitchen tiles. The company recently expanded, and the controller believes that it will need to borrow cash to continue operations. It began negotiating for a one-month bank loan of $500,000 starting May 1. The bank would charge interest at the rate of 0.75 percent per month and require the company to repay interest and principal on May 31. In considering the loan, the bank requested a projected income statement and cash budget for May.
The following information is available:
The company budgeted sales at 650,000 units per month in April, June, and July and at 500,000 units in May. The selling price is $4 per unit.
The inventory of finished goods on April 1 was 162,500 units. The finished goods inventory at the end of each month equals 25 percent of sales anticipated for the following month. There is no work in process.
