Answer:

Production= 57,500 units

Explanation:

Giving the following formula:

Desired ending inventory=  25% of the next month's sales

Budget sales in units:

August 50,000

September 80,000

To calculate the production for August, we need to use the following formula:

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Production= 50,000 + (80,000*0.25) - (50,000*0.25)

Production= 57,500 units
