Answer:

$579,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The cash payment in September would be made of 35% purchases in September and 65% of the purchase made in August (the previous month).

Hence

Cash payment in September = (35% × $670,000) + (65% × $530,000)

= $579,000

the cash payment for September is $579,000
