Answer
To complete the Debtors' Collection Schedule for July 2022, follow these calculated amounts based on the sales trends:
Credit Sales in July:
Total sales for July = R1 015 000
Credit Sales = 60% of R1 015 000 = R609 000
Collections from previous months:
40% of sales in July with a 5% discount;
45% of June sales:
60% of R997 500 = 598 500
12% of May sales two months prior:
60% of R962 500 = 577 500
Total Collections in July:
Total for July 2022: R609 000 * 0.40 - 5% = R231 420
Thus, the receipts from Debtors will total R555 345.
