Your friend, Chris Coffee, has been running a successful coffee shop for the last couple of years.  He has asked you to put together a cash budget.  His regular accountant was too busy to help, but told Chris his depreciation expense was going to be $1,800 per year, using the straight-line method.  He has supplied you with the following information (above) to help you put together his cash budget.

The revenue for a coffee is $5 for a large, $4 for a medium and $3 for a small.  50% of his sales are Large coffees, 25% medium and 25% smalls.  Chris has a deal with an accounting company and half of the coffees sold are on account, the other half pay cash.  The accounting company pays for the coffees the month after the sale.  Assume credit sales are half of the total coffee sales.

Material and Labour information Chris has provided:

Large Medium Small
Labour hours 0.1 0.05 0.05
Coffee pods 3 2 1
Cost of a Coffee pod $0.90

Labour is paid at $20/hour.  The Coffee pods need to be ordered a month in advance.  He requires 10% of next months total coffee pods to be on hand.  The beginning coffee pod inventory, February 1, was 3,000 pods.  50% of the Coffee pods are paid in the month they are ordered, 50% are paid the following month.
