Answer 1

2,480,000 = cash collections from customers during 2019

Step-by-step explanation:

`$$Beginning Accounts Receivable $$$+Credit Sales $$$- Collections $$$Equals Ending Accounts Receivable`

equals 60,000 ending

40,000 + 2,500,000 - collections = 60,000

40,000 + 2,500,000 - 60,000 = colelctions

2,480,000 = cash collections from customers during 2019
