Explanation / Answer

1. Beg Inv – 15.000 units

Exp Sales             – 23,000 units

Des ending Inv – 18,000 units

Units to be produced = Des inv – Beg inv + Exp sales

= 18,000 – 15,000 + 23,000 = 26,000 units

Ans . d. 26,000

2. Beg Inv – 4,400 jump ropes

Des Inv (10% of 2nd qtrs.exp sales) – 80,000 * (10/100) = 8,000 jump ropes

Exp sales (1st qtr) - 25,000 jump ropes

Jump ropes to be produced during the First Qtr = Des inv – Beg inv + Exp sales

= 8000 – 4400 + 25000 = 28,600 jump ropes

Ans. c. 28,600
