Budgeted sales of X for March are 18000 units. At the end of the production process for X, 10% of production units are scrapped as defective. Opening inventories of X for March are budgeted to be 15000 units and closing inventories will be 11,400 units. All inventories of finished goods must have successfully passed the quality control check. The production budget for X for March, in units is:

The correct answer is: A. 12960

To calculate the production budget, we first need to calculate the required production:

Required production = Budgeted sales + Desired ending inventory – Beginning inventory

Required production = 18000 + 11400 – 15000 = 14400 units

However, we know that 10% of the production units are scrapped as defective, so we need to adjust the required production for this:

Required production = 14400 * (1 – 0.1) = 12960 units

Therefore, the production budget for X for March is 12960 units.

Here is a brief explanation of each option:

• Option A: 12960 units. This is the correct answer. It is calculated by taking the budgeted sales of X for March (18000 units), adding the desired ending inventory (11400 units), and subtracting the beginning inventory (15000 units). This gives us the required production
