Will they have enough?

Jocelyn,
I've been reading our analysis of Baldwin, especially about their product called Bid. The sales forecast for Bid is 1320 units. From what I know of their CEO's typical approach, Baldwin will want to have at least an extra 10% of units above this forecast. Baldwin would rather have excess inventory carrying costs than lose possible sales due to stocking out.
With current inventory levels in mind, what will the production after adjustment have to be in order to have a 10% reserve of units available to sell for Bid?
I look forward to your response - thank you.
