| The large buildup in sales before and during June is due to Father\'s Day. Ending inventories are supposed to equal 40% of the next month\'s sales in units. The shoes cost the company $5.20 each. | ||||||||||||||||
| Purchases are paid for as follows: 50% in the month of purchase and the remaining 50% in the following month. All sales are on credit, with no discount, and payable within 15 days. The company has found, however, that only 20% of a month\'s sales are collected by month-end. An additional 70% is collected in the following month, and the remaining 10% is collected in the second month following sale. Bad debts have been negligible. | ||||||||||||||||
