Entry field with incorrect answer 404000 454000 409000 40800

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is 408,000 units

Explanation:

Computing the finished goods units to be produced during quarter is as:

= Desire units - Beginning inventory units

where

Desire units is 3,000

Beginning inventory units is 1,000

So,

=3,000 units - 1,000 units

= 2,000 units

Now, computing the finished goods units as:

Finished goods units = 2,000 units + Sales budgeted for the quarter

Finished goods units = 2,000 units + 406,000 units

Finished goods units = 408,000 units

NOTE: It should be 408,000 not 40800.
