Answer: 25,200 pounds
Explanation:
Your question is incomplete as it lacked the first part. I attached a completion that I found.
The company has a policy that the ending inventory of foam each month must be equal to 30% of the following month's expected production needs.
This means that in August, the Opening inventory will be 30% of what was is needed in August and the Closing Inventory will be 30% of what is needed in September.
Remember that each cushion requires 2 pounds of foam as stuffing.
Pounds required in August
= 12,000 cushions * 2
= 24,000 pounds
Opening Stock
= 30% * (12,000 * 2)
= 7,200 pounds
Closing stock
= 30% * ( 14,000 * 2)
= 8,400 pounds.
Foam needed to be purchased in August = Pounds required tonbe produced + Closing Stock - Opening Stock
= 24,000 + 8,400 - 7,200
= 25,200
25,200 pounds of foam are what The Porch Cushion Company needs to purchase in August.

We can also solve for the pre-tax rate of the municipal bond:
the municipal bonds would be equivalent to a 6.6% corporate bonds.
This makes option D correct.
