September $580,000
Abet's cost of goods sold is 60% of sales dollars.
Abet wants a merchandise inventory balance equal to 25% of the following month's expected cost of goods sold.
<u>To calculate the purchases for August, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Purchases= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Purchases= (540,000*0.6) + (580,000*0.6)*0.25 - (540,000*0.6)*0.25
Purchases= 324,000 + 87,000 - 81,000
Purchases= $330,000
