I HAVE ANSWERED ALL OF THESE QUESTIONS ALREADY, except for the last two which I have attached a picture of. I only need help with the problems pictured.

Operating Budget, Comprehensive Analysis

Allison Manufacturing produces a subassembly used in the production of jet aircraft engines. The assembly is sold to engine manufacturers and aircraft maintenance facilities. Projected sales in units for the coming 5 months follow:

January 40,000    
February 50,000    
March 60,000    
April 60,000    
May 62,000    

The following data pertain to production policies and manufacturing specifications followed by Allison Manufacturing:

  1. Finished goods inventory on January 1 is 32,000 units, each costing $166.06. The desired ending inventory for each month is 80% of the next month's sales.
  2. The data on materials used are as follows:
    Direct Material Per-Unit Usage DM Unit Cost ($)
    Metal 10 lbs.   8
    Components 6   5
    Inventory policy dictates that sufficient materials be on hand at the end of the month to produce 50% of the next month's production needs. This is exactly the amount of material on hand on December 31 of the prior year.
  3. The direct labor used per unit of output is 3 hours. The average direct labor cost per hour is $14.25.
  4. Overhead each month is estimated using a flexible budget formula. (Note: Activity is measured in direct labor hours.)
      Fixed-Cost  
    Component ($)
    Variable-Cost
    Component ($)
    Supplies   1.00
    Power   0.50
    Maintenance 30,000   0.40
    Supervision 16,000  
    Depreciation 200,000  
    Taxes 12,000  
    Other 80,000   0.50
  5. Monthly selling and administrative expenses are also estimated using a flexible budgeting formula. (Note: Activity is measured in units sold.)
      Fixed   
    Costs ($)
    Variable
    Costs ($)
    Salaries 50,000  
    Commissions   2.00
    Depreciation 40,000  
    Shipping   1.00
    Other 20,000   0.60
  6. The unit selling price of the subassembly is $205.
  7. All sales and purchases are for cash. The cash balance on January 1 equals $400,000. The firm requires a minimum ending balance of $50,000. If the firm develops a cash shortage by the end of the month, sufficient cash is borrowed to cover the shortage. Any cash borrowed is repaid at the end of the quarter, as is the interest due (cash borrowed at the end of the quarter is repaid at the end of the following quarter). The interest rate is 12% per annum. No money is owed at the beginning of January.

Required:

1.  Prepare a monthly operating budget for the first quarter with the following schedules. (Note: Assume that there is no change in work-in-process inventories.)
