Question: Daniel Chu Ltd, a new business, will start production on 1 April, but sales will not commence until 1 May. Planned sales for the next nine months are as follows:

                                                              Sales Units

May                                                             500

June                                                            600

July                                                             700

August                                                        800

September                                                  900

October                                                       900

November                                                   900

December                                                   800

January                                                      700

The unit selling price will be a consistent £100 and all sales will be made on one month's credit. It is planned that sufficient finished goods inventories for each month's sales should be available at the end of the previous month. Raw material purchases will be such that there will be sufficient raw materials inventories available at the end of each month to meet the following month's planned production precisely. This planned policy will operate from the end of April. Purchases of raw materials will be on one month's credit. The cost of raw material is £40 a unit of finished product. The direct labour cost, which is variable with the level of production, is planned to be £20 a unit of finished production. Production overheads are planned to be £20,000 each month, including £3,000 for depreciation. Non-production overheads are planned to be £11,000 a month, of which £1,000 will be depreciation. Various non-current (fixed) assets costing £250,000 will be bought and paid for during April. Except where specified otherwise, assume that all payments take place in the same month as the cost is incurred. The business will raise £300,000 in cash from a share issue in April.

Required: For the six months ending 30 September, draw up:

(a) a finished inventories budget, showing just physical quantities;

(b) a raw materials inventories budget, showing both physical quantities and financial values;

(c) a trade payables budget;

(d) a trade receivables budget;

(e) a cash budget.
