Buffie · Answer 1

Production for 2nd Quarter = 15,000 units

Explanation:

given data

ending inventory of finished goods = 25 %

finished goods inventory at year start = 4,000 units

so we consider here Quarter sales in unit

1 = 12,000

2 = 14,000

3 = 18,000

4 = 16,000

solution

we get here Production for 2nd Quarter that is

Production for 2nd Quarter = Quarter 2 sale + Desired Q2 ending inventory - Beginning Q2 inventory ... 1

so it will be as

Production for 2nd Quarter = Quarter 2 sale + (25% of Q3 Sale) - (25% of Q2 sale)

put here value

Production for 2nd Quarter = 14000 + (18000 * 25%) - (14000 * 25%)

Production for 2nd Quarter = 14000 + 4500 - 3500

Production for 2nd Quarter = 15,000 units
