Widden Company, which sells electric razors, had $320,000 of cost of goods sold during the month of June. The company projects a 9 percent increase in cost of goods sold during July. The inventory balance as of June 30 is $33,000, and the desired ending inventory balance for July is $34,000. Widden pays cash to settle 75 percent of its purchases on account during the month of purchase and pays the remaining 25 percent in the month following the purchase. The accounts payable balance as of June 30 was $37,000.
A. Determine the amount of purchases budgeted for July?
B. Determine the amount of cash payments budgeted for inventory purchases in July?

Part A. The amount of purchases budgeted for July is calculated below:

Amount of purchases = Cost of goods sold + Closing inventory - Opening inventory  

Amount of purchases = ($320,000 x 1.09) + $34,000 - $33,000

Amount of purchases = $348,800 + $34,000 — $33,000

Amount of purchases = $349,800

Therefore, the amount of purchases budgeted for July is $349,800.

Part B. The amount of cash payments budgeted for inventory purchases in July is calculated below:

Amount of cash paid in July = Opening accounts receivable + 75% of purchases in July

Amount of cash paid in July = $37,000 + ($349,800 × 0.75)

Amount of cash paid in July = $37,000 + $262,350

Amount of cash paid in July = $299,350

Therefore, the amount of cash paid in July is $299,350.
