Chapter Six Exercise 5
- Abbreviated cash budget; financing emphasis
An abbreviated cash budget for Big Chuck Enterprises follows:
| July | August | September | |
| Beginning cash balance | $ 10,000 | $ ? | $ ? |
| Add: Cash receipts | 50,000 | 63,000 | 71,000 |
| Deduct: Cash payments | (64,000) | (58,000) | (64,000) |
|
Cash excess (deficiency) before financing | $ (4,000) | $ ? | $ ? |
| Financing | |||
|
Borrowing to maintain minimum balance | ? | ? | ? |
| Principal repayment | ? | ? | ? |
| Interest payment | ? | ? | ? |
| Ending cash balance | $ ? | $ ? | $ ? |
- Big Chuck wants to maintain a $10,000 minimum cash
balance at all times. Additional financing is available (and retired) in $1,000
multiples at a 12% interest rate. Assume that borrowings take place at the
beginning of the month; retirements, in contrast, occur at the end of the
month. Interest is paid at the time of repaying principal and computed on the
portion of principal repaid.
- Find the unknowns in Big Chuck’s abbreviated cash budget.
- Determine the outstanding loan balance as of September 30, after any repayments have been made.

- 2) Management wants to maintain the finished goods inventory at 30% of the following month’s sales.
- 3) Watson uses four units of direct material in each finished unit. The direct material price has been stable and is expected to remain so over the next 6 months. Management wants to maintain the ending direct materials inventory at 60% of the following month’s production needs.
- 4) Seventy percent of all purchases are paid in the month of purchase; the remaining 30% are paid in the subsequent month.
- 5) Watson’s product requires 30 minutes of direct labor time. Each hour of direct labor costs $7.

Chapter Seven Exercise 5
- Overhead variances
Nova Manufacturing applies factory overhead to products on the basis of direct labor hours. At the beginning of the current year, the company’s accountant made the following estimates for the forthcoming period:
- Estimated variable overhead: $500,000
- Estimated fixed overhead: $400,000
- Estimated direct labor hours: 40,000
It is now 12 months later. Actual total overhead incurred in the manufacture of 7,900 units amounted to $895,100. Actual labor hours totaled 39,800. Assuming a direct labor standard of 5 hours per finished unit, calculate the following:
- Variable overhead efficiency variance
- Fixed overhead volume variance
- Overhead spending variance
