Direct Materials Purchases Budget
Coca-Cola Enterprises (CCE) is the largest bottler of Coca-
Cola® in Western Europe. The company purchases Coke®
and Sprite® concentrate from The Coca-Cola Company
(KO), dilutes and mixes the concentrate with carbonated
water, and then fills the blended beverage into cans or
plastic two-liter bottles. Assume that the estimated
production for Coke and Sprite two-liter bottles at the
Wakefield, UK, bottling plant is as follows for the month of
May:
Coke
Sprite
In addition, assume that the concentrate costs $75 per
pound for both Coke and Sprite and is used at a rate of
0.15 pound per 100 liters of carbonated water in blending
Coke and 0.10 pound per 100 liters of carbonated water in
blending Sprite. Assume that two liters of carbonated water
are used for each two-liter bottle of finished product.
Assume further that two-liter bottles cost $0.08 per bottle
and carbonated water costs $0.06 per liter.
153,000 two-liter bottles
86,500 two-liter bottles
Prepare a direct materials purchases budget for May,
assuming inventories are ignored, because there are no
changes between beginning and ending inventories for
concentrate, bottles, and carbonated water.
