Disbursement float = Checks return*Amount * Clear days

Disbursement float = 47 * $8,455*2.75 days

Disbursement float = $1,092,808.75

-----------------------------------------

Collection float = Checks received*Amount * Clear days

Collection float = 59*$10,220 *2.25 days

Collection float = $1,356,705

---------------------------

Net collection float = difference between two floats

Net collection float = $1,356,705 - $1,092,808.75

Net collection float = $263,896.25
