How much would Brockman Company need to borrow

solution

we get here Ending cash balance that is express as

Ending cash balance = beginning cash balance + cash receipts - Cash disbursement ... 1

put here value we get

Ending cash balance = $35000 + $126000 - $127000

Ending cash balance = $34000

and required loan to borrow will be here as

required loan = ending cash balance wants - Ending cash balance ... 2

put here value we get

Required borrow = $50000 - $34000

Required loan = $16000
