(1,200,000 fasteners)
(1,400,000 fasteners)
(2,000,000 fasteners)
(2,500,000 fasteners)
Last year Ingo Corporation's sales were P175,000 in November and P232,500 in December
(1,500,000 fasteners).
The company makes 10 percent of its sales for cash and 90 percent on credit. Of the credit sales,
30 percent are collected in the month after the sale and 70 percent are collected two months after.
Super Sales pays for 45 percent of its purchases in the month after purchase and 55 percent two
months after.
Ms. Tee is preparing for a meeting with Peninsula Banking Corporation to arrange the financing for
the first quarter. Based on her sales forecast and the following information she has provided, you
have to prepare a monthly cash budget, a monthly and quarterly pro forma income statement, a pro
forma quarterly balance sheet, and all necessary supporting schedules for the first quarter.
Labor expense equals 15 percent of the current month's sales. General overhead expense equals
P10,000 per month. Interest payments of P35,000 are due in June and September. A cash dividend
of P25,000 is scheduled to be paid in June. Tax payments of P30,000 are due in June and
September. There is a scheduled purchase for cash of an equipment, P290,000 in September.
Past history shows that Ingo Corporation collects 50 percent of its accounts receivable in the normal
30-day credit period (the month after the sale) and the other 50 percent in 60 days (two months after
the sale). It pays for its materials 30 days after receipt. In general, Ms. Tee likes to keep a two-month
supply of inventory in anticipation of sales. Inventory at the beginning of December was 2,600,000
units. (This was not equal to her desired two-month supply.)
Super Sales’ ending cash balance in May is P25,000. The minimum desired cash balance is
P20,000. The maximum desired cash balance is P50,000. Excess cash (above P50,000) is used to
buy marketable securities. Marketable securities are sold before borrowing funds in case of a cash
shortfall (less than P20,000).
The major cost of production is the purchase of raw materials in the form of steel rods, which are cut,
threaded, and finished. Last year raw material costs were P52 per 1,000 fasteners, but Ms. Tee has
just been notified that material costs have risen, effective January 1, to P60 per 1,000 fasteners. The
Ingo Corporation uses FIFO inventory accounting. Labor costs are relatively constant at P20 per
thousand fasteners, since workers are paid on a piecework basis. Overhead is allocated at P10 per
thousand units, and selling and administrative expense is 20 percent of sales. Labor expense and
overhead are direct cash outflows paid in the month incurred, while interest and taxes are paid
quarterly.

The corporation usually maintains a minimum cash balance of P25,000, and it puts its excess cash
into marketable securities. The average tax rate is 40 percent, and the company usually pays out 50
percent of net income in dividends to stockholders. Marketable securities are sold before funds are
borrowed when a cash shortage is faced. Ignore the interest on any short-term borrowings. Interest
on the long-term debt is paid in March, as are taxes and dividends.
