Production Budget and Direct Materials Purchases Budgets
Peanut Land Inc. produces all-natural organic peanut butter. The peanut butter is sold in 12-ounce jars. The sales budget for the first four months of the year is as follows:
| Unit Sales | Dollar Sales ($) | |
| January | 40,000 | 80,000 |
| February | 75,000 | 150,000 |
| March | 70,000 | 140,000 |
| April | 66,000 | 132,000 |
Company policy requires that ending inventories for each month
be 20% of next month's sales. At the beginning of January, the
inventory of peanut butter is 35,000 jars.
Each jar of peanut butter needs two raw materials: 24 ounces of
peanuts and one jar. Company policy requires that ending
inventories of raw materials for each month be 20% of the next
month's production needs. That policy was met on January 1.
Required:
1. Prepare a production budget for the first quarter of the year. Show the number of jars that should be produced each month as well as for the quarter in total.
