The monthly budget amounts in the report were based on an expected production of 62,000 units per month or 744,000 units per
year. The Assembling Department manager is pleased with the report and expects a raise, or at least praise for a job well done. The
company president, however, is unhappy with the results for August because only 60,000 units were produced.
