Playclay, requires three pounds of material A135 in the manufacture of each unit. The company is

of Playclay occur in the third quarter of each year. To keep production and shipments moving
smoothly, the company has the following inventory requirements:
a.

plus 30% of the next month's sales. The finished goods inventory on June 30 is budgeted to be
17,000 units..

following month's production needs for raw materials. The raw materials inventory on June 30
for material A135 is budgeted to be 64,500 pounds.
