Emilie Knight · Answer 1

The excess cash balance available over disbursements for the month would be $29000

Explanation:

Calculation of the cash available over the distribution for the month is as follows:

Particulars Amount

(In dollars)

begining cash balance 15000

Cash receipts 82000

Total cash 97000

Less: cash disbursements 68000

Excess cash available 29000

therefore, the excess cash available is $29000

Even though the company wants a balance of cash at the ending to be $15000, there is excess of cash balance than that. Even after deducting the cash disbursements, a company has a surplus amount of cash in its account to be shown in the books of accounts.
