    The balance should Windsor report as its "Cash and cash equivalents" balance at April 30, 2017 is $19,410

    Explanation:

    The computation of the "Cash and cash equivalents" balance at April 30, 2017 is shown below:

    = Currency amount + U. S treasury bill + check received in April month + checking account + saving account

    = $70 + $11,100 + $300 + $2,730 + $5,210

    = $19,410

    The other given transactions would not be included because there is no outflow and inflow of cash for the April month. Hence, ignored it
