Budgeted unit sales

Each light requires two separate LED bulbs, each of which costs $2. To ensure enough LED bulbs are on hand to support short-term production if a problem arises with the sole supplier, Fortin Limited maintains an ending inventory of 10% of the following quarters production needs. A total of 5,200 LED bulbs will be on hand to start the first quarter of the upcoming fiscal year. Management expects sales in the fourth quarter of the upcoming year to be the same as the first quarter of the following year. Required: Prepare a direct materials purchases budget for LED bulbs, by quarter and in total, for the upcoming fiscal year. At the bottom of your budget, show the dollar amount of purchases for each quarter and for the year in total. Hint: Fortin Limited maintains an ending inventory of both raw materials and finished goods of 10% of the following quarter's production needs. Before preparing a direct materials budget, the production budget must be prepared.
