Manufacturing, Inc. is preparing budgets for the third quarter of 2016. Hancock produces only one y product
Question:
Manufacturing, Inc. is preparing budgets for the third quarter of 2016. Hancock produces only one y product in its factory. This product requires 5 pounds of material B, 2 pounds of material G, and a component, K, that is purchased from another manufacturer. Hancock operates on a just-in-time basis for material B. As a result, Hancock maintains no inventory of material B. On July 1, 2016, the inventory of material G is expected to be 2,000 pounds and the inventory of component K is expected to be 500 units. Hancock wants the inventories of G and K at September 30, 2016, to be 20% less than the inventories at July 1, 2016. The inventory of finished products at June 30, 2016, is expected to be 1,000 units; the desired inventory at September 30, 2016, is 3,000 units to allow a buildup for heavy sales in the fourth quarter. The sales forecast for the third quarter is 12,000 units at \($300\) each.
Budgeted purchase costs are \($10\) per pound for B, \($7\) per pound for G, and \($40\) per component for K.
Required
