Section "B"

1)     Khaled Industries, a defense contractor, is developing a cash budget for October, November, and December. 

Khaled's sales in August and September were $100,000 and $200,000 respectively. Forecasted Sales for October, November, and December are as below: October - $400,000 November - $300,000 December - $200,000.

30% of the firm's sales have been for cash, 50% have been collected after 1 month, and the remaining 20% after 2 months. Bad-debt expenses (uncollectible accounts) have been negligible. In December, Khaled will receive a $30,000 dividend from stock in a subsidiary.

Khaled has also gathered the relevant information for the development of a cash disbursement schedule. Purchases will represent 70% of sales - 40% will be paid immediately in cash, 60% is paid the month following the purchase. The firm will also expend cash on rent, wages and salaries every month of $52,000. 

Prepare  Cash Budget for October, November and December. 

2)     A company has two divisions, Division A and Division B. Division A manufactures products for both outside market as well as for Division B. The manager of Division B has expressed that transfer price of Division A is too high. 

Division A has been selling 40000 units to outsiders and 10000 units to Division B, all at $20 per unit. The variable cost is $12 per unit and fixed costs at $200,000. Division B is asking for a transfer price of $18 per unit. If Division A does not sell to Division B, fixed costs of $ 30000 and assets of $175000 can be avoided. The firms existing assets are worth $ 800,000.

Division A is judging based on ROI.

c)     Should Division A transfer its products at $18 to Division B?

d)    What is the lowest price that Division A should accept?
