    Cash balance on November 30 = $77,400

    Explanation:

    October sales $160,000

    November sales $192,000

    Calculation: November sales = $160,000 + (160,000 * 20%) = $160,000 + 32,000 = $192,000.

    Collection from November $48,000

    As 70% will be collected from the next month, therefore we can collect 70% from the month of October = $112,000

    Total cash collection in November = $48,000 + $112,000 = $160,000

    Cash disbursement for the month of November $110,000 * 30% = $33,000

    70% from the month of October $90,000 * 70% = $63,000

    Total cash disbursement = $96,000

    The cash balance on November 1 = $13,400

    Add: cash collection = $160,000

    Less: cash disbursement = ($96,000)

    Cash balance on November 30 = $77,400
