Answer 1

$112,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Th cash collected for each month will include 25% of the sales for the month and 75% of the sales from the previous month given that Cash sales are normally 25% of total sales and all credit sales are expected to be collected in the month following the date of sale.

Hence cash collection for September will include 75% sales made in August.

The total amount of cash expected to be received from customers in September

= $30,000 + $82,500

= $112,500
