Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Production budget is a schedule of the number of units of goods that are to be produced using a forecast sales amount and the level of the opening and closing inventory

                                            Bath Scale                       Gym Scale

Northern region                     25,500                              33,300

Southern region                     27,500                              28,900

Total                                        53,000                               62,200  

Opening inventory                  (1,200)                                ( 2,500 )

Closing inventory                     900                                     2,700    

Total units to be produced     52,700                               62,400

Bath scale = 53000+900 -1200 = 52700

Gym scale = 62200+ 2700-2500 =62,400
