quarter of the year is as follows:

Past experience shows that $5\%$ of credit sales are uncollectible. Of the credit sales that are collectible, $60\%$ are collected in the month

of sale; the remaining $40\%$ are collected in the month following the month of sale. Customers are granted a $1\mathrm{.}5\%$ discount for payment

within $10$ days of billing. Approximately $75\%$ of collectible credit sales take advantage of the cash discount.

Inventory purchases each month are $100\%$ of the cost of the following month's projected sales. $($The gross profit rate for Timpco is

approximately $30\%.)$ All merchandise purchases are made on credit, with $20\%$ paid in the month of purchase and the remainder paid in

the following month. No cash discounts for early payment are available.
