The budgeted payment for purchases in June will be $64500

Explanation:

Every month, the payment is made for partially for the previous month's purchases and partially for the current month's purchases. Thus, the payment for purchases in June will include the amount due for 70% of May's purchases and 30% of June's purchases.

The payment budgeted for June will be,

Payments for purchases-June = 0.7 * 60000 + 0.3 * 75000

Payments for purchases-June = 64500
