Taylor Garner · Answer 1

There would be in the month an excess cash available of $29,000.

Explanation:

In order to calculate the excess (deficiency) of cash available over disbursements for the month, first we have to calculate the total cash.

Total cash = beginning cash balance+cash receipts

=$10,000+$85,000

=$95,000

There are budgeted cash disbursements of $66,000, so $95,000-$66,000=$29,000, hence there would be in the month an excess cash available of $29,000.
