False

corp expecting beginning cash balance is $35,000. cash collections are budgeted at $50,000 and cash disbursements are estimated to be $80,000 the minimum required cash balance is $20,000 and the company can borrow as much as needed in increments of $10,000. calculate the expected ending cash balance for the month

$25,000 $35,000+$50,000-$80,000=$5,000 since they can borrow in increments of $10,000, they must borrow $20,000 to meet or exceed the minimum cash balance, making the ending balance $25,000

If Jewels increases the quality of the stones, what price will she need to charge to attain her target profit of $60,000 per year ?

$39.20 ($28 x 12,500 + $80,000 + $60,000) = $490,000/12,500
