Respuesta :

Answer:

The firm's budgeted collections for March is $64,000

Explanation:

For collecting the firm's budgeted collections for march, the computation is shown below:

30% are collected in the month of the sale :

=  30% of March sale

= 30 × $70,000

= $21,000

60% are collected in the first month after the sale :

It means the calculations based on February month

= 60% × $60,000

=$36,000

10% are collected in the second month after the sale:

It means the calculations based on January  month

=  10% × $70,000

= $7,000

Now, add these three  month sales which equals to

= $21,000 + $36,000 + $7,000

= $64,000

Hence, the firm's budgeted collections for March is $64,000
