Developing a Master Budget for a Manufacturing Organization Jacobs Incorporated manufactures a product with a selling price of $50 per unit. Units and monthly cost data follow:

Variable:
Selling and administrative	$5 per unit sold
Direct materials	10 per unit manufactured
Direct labor	10 per unit manufactured
Variable manufacturing overhead	5 per unit manufactured
Fixed:
Selling and administrative	$20,000 per month
Manufacturing (including depreciation of $10,000)	30,000 per month

Jacobs pays all bills in the month incurred. All sales are on account with 50 percent collected the month of sale and the balance collected the following month. There are no sales discounts or bad debts. Jacobs desires to maintain an ending finished goods inventory equal to 20 percent of the following month's sales and a raw materials inventory equal to 10 percent of the following month's production. January 1 inventories are in line with these policies. Actual unit sales for December and budgeted unit sales for January, February, and March are as follows:
