Answer:

$157,000

Explanation:

The calculation of estimated cash receipts from accounts receivable collections in May is shown below:-

Collections from sales of may = $200,000 × 20%

= $40,000  

Collections from sales of April = $150,000 × 70%

= $105,000

Collections from sales of prior period = $12,000    

Estimated Collections in May month = Collections from sales of may + Collections from sales of April + Collections from sales of prior period

= $40,000 + $105,000 + $12,000

= $157,000

So, for computing the estimated collection in may month we simply applied the above formula.
