Answer:

$62,800

Explanation:

Following Garfield Corp's policy, the number of pet beds that must be purchased, assuming no initial inventory, is given by the expected number of sales in March (1,300 units) added to 30% of the expected sales in April (30% of 900 units):

[tex]n=1,300 +(0.3*900)\\n=1,570\ units[/tex]

Since the company purchases each pet bed for $40, total budgeted purchases are:

[tex]P=\$40*n=\$40*1,570\\P=\$62,800[/tex]

Garfield Corp's total budgeted purchases for March are $62,800.
