Answer:

From the attached excel file, we have:

a. Ending Cash Balance:

October = $30,000

November = $30,000

December = $34,546

b. Loan Balance End of Month:

October = $20,100

November = $15,301

December = $0

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the cash budget for October, November, and December.

In the attached excel file, the following calculations are made:

October additional loan = Minimum required cash balance - October Preliminary cash balance = $30,000 - $19,900 = $10,100

November Loan Repayment = November Preliminary cash balance - Minimum required cash balance = $34,799 = $30,000 = $4,799
