The total cash collected during January by LaGrange Corporation would be:

$181,600

Explanation:

The computation of total cash is shown below:-

Working  Note :-

Credit sales of December

= $42,000 ÷ 50%

= $ 84,000  

Credit sale of November

= $23,000 ÷ 10%

= $ 230,000

Cash Collected from Credit sales

For January

= $150,000 x 50%

= $75,000

For December

= $84,000 x 40%

= $33,600

For November

= $230,000 x 10%

= $23,000

Total Cash collections from Credit sale  = January + November + December

= $75,000 + $33,600 + $23,000

= $131,600

Cash sale of January = $50,000

Total Cash collected in January  =  Total Cash collections from Credit sale  + Cash sale of January

= $131,600 + $50,000

= $181,600
