    Firm's beginning cash balance on June 1: $205

    Explanation:

    + Cash receipt from sales on account is not received until 30 days later as accounts receivable period is 30 days. As a result, Cash receipt from sales in May = Sales on credit in April = $430

    + Beginning cash balance on June is calculated as:

    Beginning cash balance in May + Cash receipt from credit sales in May - Cash expenses in May - Cash payment to account payable in May = 175 + 430 - 110 - 290 = $205.

    So, the answer is $205.
