The Waverly Company has budgeted sales for the year as follows:

Quarter sales in unit

1=12,000

2=14,000

3=18,000

4=16,000

The ending inventory of finished goods for each quarter should equal 25% of the next quarter's budgeted sales in units. The finished goods inventory at the start of the year is 3,000 units. Scheduled production for the second quarter (in units) is:

a.17,500 units.

b.16,500 units.

c.15,000 units.

d.13,000 units.

Production= 15,000 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales:

Q2=14,000

Q3=18,000

The ending inventory of finished goods for each quarter should equal 25% of the next quarter's budgeted sales in units.

To calculate the production for the second quarter, we need to use the following formula:

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Production= 14,000 + (18,000*0.25) - (14,000*0.25)

Production= 15,000 units

1   all nations face the problem of scarcity because there are limited resources and unlimited wants. nations do not have enough factors of production to produce everything that their population wants. entrepreneurial resources initiate businesses to make new goods and services; labor resources produce goods and services.

2 there are four factors of production: natural resources, labor resources, capital resources, and entrepreneurial resources. natural resources are raw materials from nature that are used to produce goods. trees, water, and grains are natural resources. some natural resources, such as wheat and cattle, are renewable
