chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

24,000 units

Explanation:

Given:

Budgeted sales for January = 30,000

Budgeted sales for February = 20,000

Opening inventory in January = 7,500

Desired ending inventory = 20% of sales in February

= 0.2 × 20,000

= 4,000 units

Units required in January = 30,000 + 4,000

= 34,000 units

Units to be produced in January = 34,000 - opening inventory

= 34,000 - 7,500

= 26,500 units

Budgeted sales for February = 20,000

Budgeted sales for March = 40,000

Opening inventory in February is closing inventory of January = 4,000

Desired ending inventory = 20% of sales in March

= 0.2 × 40,000

= 8,000 units

Units required in February = 20,000 + 8,000

= 28,000 units

Units to be produced in February = 28,000 - opening inventory

= 28,000 - 4,000

= 24,000 units

The accounting records for Portland Products report the following manufacturing costs for the past year. Direct materials $ 390,

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the unitary costs:

Direct materials= 390,000/180,000= $2.17

Direct labor= 261,000/180,000= $1.45

Variable overhead= 235,000/180,000= $1.31

Now, we determine the new costs:

Direct materials= 2.17*1.2= $2.604

Direct labor= 1.45*1.04= $1.508

Fixed overhead= 851,000*1.1= $936,100

Total cost for 144,000 units:

Total cost= 144,000*(2,604 + 1,508 + 1.31) + 936,100

Total cost= 144,000*5.422 + 936,100

Total cost= $1,716,868

Finally, the unitary cos for both years:

Last year= 2.17 + 1.45 + 1.31= $4.93

This year= $5.422
