    Answer: $242,000

    Explanation:

    Seeing as this is the balance on the 31st of May, it can be assumed that the 60% to be collected in May (being the month following April) from April Credit Sales has already been collected so only 10% remains.

    For May, we can assume that the 30% has been collected leaving only 70% still to be collected on the 31st.

    Calculating therefore,

    April Credit Sales Due 31st of May = 320,000 * 10%

    = $32,000

    May Credit Sales due 31st of May = 300,000 * 70%

    = $210,000

    Total on the 31st of May is therefore,

    = 32,000 + 210,000

    = $242,000

    The budgeted accounts receivable balance on May 31 would be $242,000.
