Answer:
$284,200
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of cash collections is shown below:-
Cash sales of October = $282,000 × 80%
= $225,600
Credit sales collection
September = ($304,000 × 20%) × 50%
= $30,400
October = $282,000 × 20% × 50%
= $28,200
Total cash collections for the month of October = Cash sales of October + Credit sales collection of September + Credit sales collection of October
= $225,600 + $30,400 + $28,200
= $284,200
