QUESTION 1:

Chow Corporation manufactures children's chairs made of PVS plastic tubing and heavy canvas material. Each chair requires eight feet of the PVC tubing and three yards of material. Budgeted sales are 20,000 chairs for June, 25,000 chairs for July and 30,000 chairs for August. Ending finished goods inventory is budgeted at 10% of the current month's sales. Ending materials inventories are budgeted at 10% of the current month's production.

Prepare a production budget for each of the months of June, July and August. Assume the beginning inventory of chairs in June will be 2,500 units.
