Answer: $53,600

Explanation:

Credit sales increase the balance on Accounts Receivables because they represent that people owe the business.

It is therefore included in the formula for calculating the ending balance of Accounts Receivables:

Ending accounts receivables = Beginning accounts receivable + Credit sales in May - Customer payments during May

19,000 = 24,600 + Credit Sales in May - 59,200

Credit Sales in May = 19,000 + 59,200 - 24,600

= $53,600
