The budgeted unit sales are 12,000 units, 37,000 units, 15,000 units, and 25,000 units for quarters 1-4, respectively. Notice that the company experiences peak sales in the second and fourth quarters. The budgeted selling price for the year is $32 per unit. The budgeted unit sales for the rst quarter of 2020 is 13,000 units. . All sales are on credit. Uncollectible accounts are negligible and can be ignored. Seventy-ve percent of all credit sales are collected in the quarter ofthe sale and 25% are collected in the subsequent quarter. . Each quarter's ending finished goods inventory should equal 15% ofthe next quarter's unit sales. . Each unit of nished goods requires 3.5 yards of raw material that costs $3.00 per yard. Each quarter's ending raw materials inventory should equal 10% of the next quarter's production needs. The estimated ending raw materials inventory on December 31, 2019 is 5,000 yards. Seventy percent of each quarter's purchases are paid for in the quarter of purchase. The remaining 30% of each quarter's purchases are paid in the following quarter. Direct laborers are paid $18 an hour and each unit of nished goods requires 0.25 direct labor-hours to complete. All direct labor costs are paid in the quarter incurred. 7. The budgeted variable manufacturing overhead per direct laborvhour is $3.00. The quarterly fixed manufacturing 8. 10. 11. overhead is $150,000 including $20,000 of depreciation on equipment. The number of direct laborhours is used as the allocation base for the budgeted plantwide overhead rate. All overhead costs (excluding depreciation) are paid in the quarter incurred. The budgeted variable selling and administrative expense is $1.25 per unit sold. The fixed selling and administrative expenses per quarter include advertising ($25,000), executive salaries ($64,000), insurance ($12,000), property tax ($8,000), and depreciation expense ($8,000). All selling and administrative expenses (excluding depreciation) are paid in the quarter incurred. . The company plans to maintain a minimum cash balance at the end of each quarter of $30,000. Assume that any borrowings take place on the rst day of the quarter. To the extent possible, the company will repay principal and interest on any borrowings on the last day of the fourth quarter. The company's lender imposes a simple interest rate of 3% per quarter on any borrowings. Dividends of $15,000 will be declared and paid in each quarter. The company uses a last-in, first-out (LIFO) inventory flow assumption. This means that the most recently purchased raw materials are the "rst-out" to production and the most recently completed finished goods are the \"rstout\" to customers.
