    The $3,600 cash is collected in June

    Explanation:

    For computing the total cash collected in the June month, first, we have to find the sales of June and may which is based on the collection ratio which is given in the question.

    June month collection = June sales * 30%

    = $5,000 * 30%

    = $1,500

    In the question it is given that 30% is collected on June month and remaining i. e 70% collected in the May month or following month.

    June month collection based on may sales = 70% * May sales

    = 70% * $3,000

    = $2,100

    So, total cash collected in the June month is equal to

    = June month collection + June month collection based on may sales

    = $1,500 + $2,100

    = $3,600

    Hence, the $3,600 cash is collected in June
