Answer:

207,000

Explanation:

Data provided

Sold units = 218,000

Ending inventory = 13,000

Opening units = 24,000

The computation of units during September is shown below:-

Number of units manufactured during the year = Sold units + Ending inventory - Opening units

= 218,000 + 13,000 - 24,000

= 231,000 - 24,000

= 207,000

Therefore for computing the number of units manufactured during the year we simply applied the above formula.
