    Step-by-step explanation:

    a) November sales = (Total Uncollected Sales - Uncollected Sales from December) / Collection rate after two months

    = ($121,100 - $87,300) / 0.20

    November sales = $169, 000.00

    b) December sales = Uncollected sales from December / Collection rate of the previous month sales,

    Therefore: December sales = $87,300 / 0.45 = $194,000

    December sales = $194,000.00

    c) Each month's collection for the company are:

    Collections for ech month = 0.20 (Sales from 2 months ago) + 0.25 (Last month's sales) + 0.55 (Current sales)

    January collections = 0.20 ($169000.00) + 0.25 ($194,000.00) + 0.55 ($132,000)

    January collections = $154,900.00

    February collections = 0.20 ($194,000.00) + 0.25 ($132,000) + 0.55 ($149,000)

    February collections = $153,750.00

    March collections = 0.20 ($132,000) + 0.25 ($149,000) + 0.55 ($164,000)

    March collections = $153,850.00
