36,000 is mentioned in the question as 36,000 grams of musk oil will be on hand to start the first quarter of year 2. It is the beginning inventory for the first quarter.
Ending inventory of the first quarter 54,000 units which is 20% of the second quarter's production needs (90,000units*3per unit*20%) is the beginning inventory for the second quarter.
Ending inventory of the second quarter 90,000 units which is 20% of the third quarter's production needs (150,000units*3per unit*20%) is the beginning inventory for the third quarter.
Ending inventory of the third quarter 60,000 units which is 20% of the second quarter's production needs (100,000units*3per unit*20%) is the beginning inventory for the fourth quarter.
Beginning raw materials inventory for the first quarter which is 36,000 is what on hand at the beginning of the year and it is the beginning raw materials inventory for the year.
