Ross's budgeted collections for July is $1,195,000

Explanation:

The computation of the budgeted collections for July month is shown below:

July sales = Budgeted sales * collection percentage

= $1,250,000 * 70%

= $875,000

June sales = (Budgeted sales : remaining collection percentage) * collection percentage

= ($240,000 : 30%) * 20%

= $160,000

May sales = Accounts receivable balance - June sales

= $400,000 - $240,000

= $160,000

Now sum up all three months sales

So, the value would be

= $875,000 + $160,000 + $160,00

= $1,195,000
