Answer:
Production= 76,500
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Motorcycle Manufacturers, Inc. projected sales of 76,000 machines for 2010. The estimated January 1, 2010, inventory is 6,500 units, and the desired December 31, 2010, inventory is 7,000 units.
We need to use the following formula:
Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Production= 76,000 + 7,000 - 6,500
Production= 76,500
Answer:
76,500
Explanation:
The movement in the balance of inventory (machines in this case) at the start and end of a period is as a result of sales and production. While sales reduces the balance in inventory, production increases the balance.
This may be expressed mathematically as
Opening balance + production - units sold = closing balance
Let the production in units be g
6500 + g - 76,000 = 7,000
g = 7,000 + 76,000 - 6,500
= 76,500
