For the Month of April, May and June
  April May June
Budgeted sales for the Month 1,040,000 1,220,000 980,000
Add: Ending inventory requirement 366,000 294,000 306,000
Total units required for the month 1,406,000 1,514,000 1,286,000

Budgeted purchases 1,126,000 1,148,000 992,000

Explanation of Solution

First, the ending inventory requirement is calculated

The ending inventory requirement is calculated as under -

Ending inventory requirement = 30 % of Next Months forecasted sales unitsEnding inventory requirement for April =30 %X Forecasted sales units for MayEnding inventory requirement for April =30%X 1,220,000 unitsEnding inventory requirement for April =366,000 unitsEnding inventory requirement for May =30 %X Forecasted sales units for JuneEnding inventory requirement for May =30% X 980,000 unitsEnding inventory requirement for May =294,000 unitsEnding inventory requirement for June =30 %X Forecasted sales units for JulyEnding inventory requirement for June =30% X 1,020,00 unitsEnding inventory requirement for June  = 306,000 units

The total requirement of the month is calculated.

Total requirement of the month = Forecasted sales units for month+ Ending inventory requirement

Given, forecasted sales for the Month –

• April = 1,040,000 units

• May =1,220,000 units

• June = 980,000 units

Ending inventory –

• April = 366,000, units

• May =294,000 units

• June = 306,000 units

Total requirement for April, May and June –

Total requirement of the month = Forecasted sales units for month+ Ending inventory requirementTotal requirement of the April =1,040,000 units +366,000 unitsTotal requirement of the April =1,406,000 unitsTotal requirement of the May =1,220,000 units+294,000 unitsTotal requirement of the May =1,514,000 unitsTotal requirement of the June =980,000 units+306,00 unitsTotal requirement of the June =1,286,000 units

Now, the budgeted purchases will be calculated as under –

Given, beginning inventory –

• April = 280,000 units

• May = 366,000 units

• June = 294,000 units

Budgeted purchases for the month = Total requirement of the month  Beginning inventoryBudgeted purchases for the April=1,406,00 units280,000 unitsBudgeted purchases for the  April=1,126,000 unitsBudgeted purchases for the May=1,514,000 units366,000 unitsBudgeted purchases for the May=1,148,00 unitsBudgeted purchases for the June=1,286,000 units294,000 unitsBudgeted purchases for the June =992,000 units

Conclusion

Thus, the merchandise purchase budget has been purchased for the months of April, May and June.
