Answer:

Total= $14,635

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cost of materials:

January= 14,870

February= 11,690

March= 12,760

Payments for purchases are expected to be made 50% in the month of purchase and 50% in the month following purchase.

The December Accounts Payable balance is $7,200.

To calculate the cash disbursement for January, we need to use the following structure:

Accounts Payable= 7,200

Cash From January= (14,870*0.5)= 7,435

Total= $14,635
