Furthermore, if  estimated sales for first quarter is 270000 units and sales will increase by 11000 units each quarter over the year then,

2nd quarter sales

3rd quarter sales

and Each unit sells for $25

Hence , Cash collections for the third quarter are budgeted

= $25 * 40% * 292,000 + $25 * 70% * 60% * 292,000 + $25 * 30% * 60% * 281000

= $2,920,000 + $3,066,000 + $1,264,500
