Question

Transcribed Image Text:# Constructing the Production Budget
This table outlines the framework for developing a production budget across various time periods. The budget is segmented into years and quarters to provide a clear overview of production needs over time.
## Table Structure
### Columns:
- **Year 2 Quarter**: Lists quarters 1 through 4 for Year 2, and aggregates the data for the entire year.
- **Year 3 Quarter**: Includes quarters 1 and 2.
### Rows:
1. **Budgeted Unit Sales**: The expected sales volume for each period. These figures are essential for determining production needs.
2. **Add Desired Finished Goods Inventory**: The amount of finished goods inventory desired at the end of each period to meet future sales without interruption.
3. **Total Needs**: The sum of budgeted unit sales and desired finished goods inventory, representing the total units required for each period.
4. **Less Beginning Inventory**: The inventory already available at the start of each period, which will reduce the production requirements.
5. **Required Production**: The total production necessary to meet both sales and inventory needs, calculated by subtracting the beginning inventory from total needs.
### Purpose:
This detailed structure is used by businesses to ensure that they can meet sales demands and maintain appropriate inventory levels, while also optimizing production resources. Filling in the cells with actual numeric data allows for effective planning and resource allocation.
