The accounts payable balance at the beginning of Quarter 1 is $39,500. The expected sales are: Quarter 1 = $32,000; Quarter 2 = $34,500; Quarter 3 = $40,600; Quarter 4 = $50,200. What is the amount of the expected disbursements for Quarter 2? Assume a 360-day year.

A) $19,280
B) $20,470
C) $22,530
D) $25,220
E) $19,950


C) $22,530
Explanation: Quarter 2 disbursements = 45/90(Quarter 2 purchases) + 45/90(Quarter 1 purchases)
Quarter 2 disbursements = 45/90(.60)(Quarter 3 sales) + 45/90(.60)(Quarter 2 sales)
Quarter 2 disbursements = 45/90(.60)($40,600) + 45/90(.60)($34,500)
Quarter 2 disbursements = $22,530
