Your answer is partially correct. Try again. On December 31, 2017, Simmons had 30 acoustic guitars in stock-fewer than the desired inventory level of 80 guitars, based on the following quarter's sales. The company has budgeted for sales of 240 acoustic guitars in the first quarter of 2019. Prepare the 2018 production budget for acoustic guitars.

Try again. Each acoustic guitar requires a maple neck blank, which Simmons purchases for $45. On December 31, 2017, Simmons had 400 neck blanks in inventory. Spoilage during the production process results in a standard quantity of 1.5 necks per acoustic guitar. Because of recent delivery problems, Simmons wants to maintain an ending inventory equal to 50% of the following quarter's production needs. Since the supplier has assured Simmons that the delivery issues will be resolved by the end of December, Simmons wants only 150 neck blanks in inventory on December 31, 2018. Prepare the purchases budget for neck blanks for 2018. (Enter "per guitar" value to 1 decimal place, e.g. 3.1.
