Explanation:

Given that ;

Budgeted unit sales for July = 7,400

Budgeted unit sales for August = 7,500

Budgeted unit sales for September = 13,800

Budgeted unit sales October = 15,300

Since all sales are on credit , and for credit sales, 40% are collected in the month of sale and 60% in the following month. Budgeted selling price = $105 per unit

Therefore;

Accounts receivable balance(August)

= Budgeted unit sales for August × Budgeted selling price × 60% of credit sales collected in the following month.

= ( 7,500 × $105 ) × 60%

= $472,500
