    The correct answer is $5,228,500

    Explanation:

    Solution

    Given that:

    The second Quarter sales = 160000 + 27000 = 187000 units

    The credit sales of second quarter = (sales units*sales price) * (100% - 40%) = 187000 * $25 * 60% = $2,805,000.

    Now,

    The units of Third quarter sales = 187000 + 27000 = 214000 units

    The cash Sales of third quarter = 214000*$25 * 40% = $2,140,000

    Thus,

    The credit sales of third quarter = 214000*$25 * 60% = 3,210,000

    Hence,

    The cash budgeted collection for third quarter = Cash sales of third quarter + (Credit sales of Third Quarter*70%) + (Credit sales of second quarter * 30%)

    = $2,140,000 + ($3,210,000*70%) + ($2,805,000*30%)

    = $2,140,000 + $2,247,000 + $841,500

    = $5,228,500

    Therefore the cash collections for the third quarter are budgeted at $5,228,500
