Question

Executive officers of Adams Company are wrestling with their budget for the next year. The following are two different sales estimates provided by two difference sources.

 

Source of Estimate First Quarter Second Quarter Third Quarter Fourth Quarter
Sales manager $ 378,000   $ 316,000   $ 271,000   $ 480,000  
Marketing consultant   512,000     469,000     403,000     648,000  
 

 

Adams’s past experience indicates that cost of goods sold is about 60 percent of sales revenue. The company tries to maintain 15 percent of the next quarter’s expected cost of goods sold as the current quarter’s ending inventory. This year’s ending inventory is $30,000. Next year’s ending inventory is budgeted to be $31,000.
