The budgeted cash disbursements for August are:

Answer 1

$486,000

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

Budgeted Cash Disbursements for August

Particular Amount ($)

Direct material purchase for July ($210,000 × 30%) 63,000

Direct material purchase for August ($390,000 × 70%) 273,000

Add-wages paid 50,000

Add: Office equipment purchase 62,000

Add: Selling and administrative expenses 38,000

Total 486,000

The depreciation is a non cash expense and the same is not relevant. Hence, ignored it
