Green Landscaping Inc. is preparing its budget for the first quarter of 2017. The next step in the budgeting process is to prepare a cash receipts schedule and a cash payments schedule. To that end the following information has been collected.

Clients usually pay 60% of their fee in the month that service is performed, 30% the month after, and 10% the second month after receiving service. Actual service revenue for 2021 and expected service revenues for 2022 are November 2021, $80,000; December 2021, $90,000; January 2022, $100,000; February 2022, $120,000; and March 2022, $140,000.

Purchases of landscaping supplies (direct materials) are paid 60% in the month of purchase and 40% the following month. Actual purchases for 2021 and expected purchases for 2022 are December 2021, $14,000; January 2022, $12,000; February 2022, $15,000; and March 2022, $18,000.
