The sales budget indicates the sales for each month from March to June. In March, sale by 105 % and the 80% inventory. The number of prior period’s unit sales from the April (10,000) that the current period’s unit sales (part 1) for March (10,000). According to the prior period’s unit sales, we can calculate the project purchases for March.
Next period’s unit sales (10,500) * Ending inventory percent (80%) = Desired ending inventory (8,400)
Desired ending inventory (8,400) + Current period’s unit sales (part 1: 10,000) = Units to be available (18,400)
Less beginning inventory 10,000 x 80 = 8,000
Units to be available: 18,400 – 8,000 = 10,400
Units to be purchased x Budgeted cost per unit = 10,400 * 15 = Projected purchases 156,000
