Total budgeted cash receipts fro May : $611000

Explanation:

Sales on credit is where the debtor can pay for the goods or services on a later date. In this case, it is paid at 3 different times: 50% during the month of sale, 30% during the next month and the reminder 20% the month after that.

According to the information, May collections would include sales of May as well as March and April. It would be:

50% of May sales = $639000 x 50% = $319500

30% of April sales = $599000 x 30% =

$179700

20% of March sales = $559000 x 20% = $111800

Total budgeted cash receipts for May = $319,500 + $179,700 + $111800 = $611000
