    Deficiency of cash for the month of October = $7,000

    Explanation:

    Opening cash = $7,000

    Add: Expected cash collections = $350,000

    Total cash in hand expected = $357,000

    Less: Cash disbursements

    Direct Material = $62,000

    Direct Labor = $45,000

    MOH Disbursements = $43,000

    Operating Expense = $85,000

    Capital Expense = $125,000

    Total cash disbursements = $360,000

    Net balance expected = $357,000 - $360,000 = $3,000 deficit.

    Also provided month end balance should be $5,000

    Therefore total deficit = $3,000 + $5,000 = $8,000

    Now provided $1,000 cash can be borrowed in that case net deficit = $8,000 - $1,000 = $7,000
