Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we must deduct the depreciation expense from each month. Depreciation is not a cash disbursement, and insurance and taxes are paid once a year.

March= 132,700 - 28,000= 104,700

April= 124,700 - 28,000= 96,700

May= 113,500 - 28,000= 85,500

Now, the cash disbursements for each month:

March:

Selling and administrative costs from March= 104,700*0.73= 76,431

Total cash disbursement= 76,431

April:

Selling and administrative costs from March= 104,700*0.27= 28,269

Selling and administrative costs from April= 96,700*0.73= 70,591

Total cash disbursement= $98,860

May:

Selling and administrative costs from May= 85,500*0.73= 62,415

Selling and administrative costs from April= 96,700*0.27= 26,109

Total cash disbursement= $88,524
