Musk oil has become so popular as a perfume ingredient that it has become necessary to carry large inventories as a precaution
against stock-outs. For this reason, the inventory of musk oil at the end of a quarter must be equal to 20% of the following quarter's
production needs. Some 33,600 grams of musk oil will be on hand to start the first quarter of Year 2.
