    The budgeted cash disbursements for August are $532,000

    Explanation:

    Amount of cash the company pays for purchases in August:

    30% x Materials purchases in July + 70% x Materials purchases in August = 30% x $250,000 + 70% x $420,000 = $369,000

    The budgeted cash disbursements for August = Cash paid for purchasing materials + Wages Expense + Purchase of office equipment + Selling and Administrative Expenses = $369,000 + $60,000 + $64,000 + $39,000 = $532,000

    Noted: Depreciation is a non-cash accounting expense, so it doesn't involve cash flow
