Answer)

Calculation of number of mattresses to be produced in the current year

Number of mattresses to be produced in the current year = Number of mattresses in finished goods expected to be maintained at the end of current year + number of mattresses in the ending inventory in the beginning of previous year

                                                     = 900 mattresses + 7,000 mattresses – 800 mattresses

                                                     = 7,100 mattresses

Therefore the company needs to produce 7,100 mattresses during the current year and the correct option in the given question is (c ) 7,100 mattresses.
