Answer: Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Particulars                Jan                  Feb                Mar

Purchase               $160,000       $200,000       $252,000

Explanation:

For computing the required purchase from Jan to Mar we need to find out the following amounts

Particulars                Jan                  Feb                Mar                  Apr

Projected sales    $380,000     $460,000        $620,000        $660,000

COGS  at 40%      $152,000      $184,000         $248,000        $264,000

Ending inventory   $46,000      $62,000          $66,000

Beg inventory        $38,000      $46,000           $62,000

Now the required purchased for each month is

Particulars                Jan                  Feb                Mar

COGS                    $152,000        $184,000        $248,000

Add: ending inve  $46,000         $62,000         $66,000

Less: Beg inve      ($38,000)       ($46,000)       ($62,000)

Purchase               $160,000       $200,000       $252,000

Here,

COGS = Cost of goods sold

Since the desired ending inventory is 25 percent of the following month’s cost of goods sold so beginning inventory would be 25 percent in current year cost of goods sold

Hence, the above statement is false.
