Part B—August Budgets
During July of the current year, the management of Genuine Spice Inc. asked the controller to prepare August manufacturing and income statement budgets. Demand was expected to be 1,500 cases at $100 per case for August. Inventory planning information is provided as follows:
Finished Goods Inventory:
Cases | Cost | |
---|---|---|
Estimated finished goods inventory, August 1 | 300 | $12,000 |
Desired finished goods inventory, August 31 | 175 | 7,000 |
Materials Inventory:
Cream Base | Oils | Bottles | |
---|---|---|---|
(ozs.) | (ozs.) | (bottles) | |
Estimated materials inventory, August 1 | 250 | 290 | 600 |
Desired materials inventory, August 31 | 1,000 | 360 | 240 |
There was negligible work in process inventory assumed for either the beginning or end of the month; thus, none was assumed. In addition, there was no change in the cost per unit or estimated units per case operating data from January.
