Answer: $37,250

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected balance in Accounts Payable as of March 31 is:

January February March

$26,800- 2,680. 13,400 10,720

$29,000. 2,900 14,500

$28,500. 2,850

In Accounts payable is $26,800 + $29,000 + $28,500= $84,300

= $84,300 - $26,800 - $17,400 -$2,850 = $37,250
