Asked in a 2000 paper

If the budget sales units are 8000, the ending inventory is 2000 units and the beginning inventory is 3000, then the budget production would be ___________?

Correct answer: D. 7000 units

  • A. 11000 units
  • B. 13000 units
  • C. 10000 units
  • D. 7000 units

Explanation

Required production equals budgeted sales plus desired ending inventory minus beginning inventory: 8,000 + 2,000 - 3,000 = 7,000 units. Beginning inventory reduces the number of new units that must be produced.
