Jaylon Vang · Answer 1

a. an excess cash balance of $90,000

Explanation:

The cash at end of July = Cash of $55,000 at end of June + cash receipts of $70,000 - cash disbursements of $10,000 = $115,000

Cash excess = Actual cash ending - minimum cash balance required = $115,000 - $25,000 = $90,000
