c. The ending finished goods inventory equals 30% of the following month’s unit sales.
d. The ending raw materials inventory equals 20% of the following month’s raw materials production needs. Each unit of finished goods requires 4 pounds of raw materials. The raw materials cost $2.50 per pound.
e. Twenty five percent of raw materials purchases are paid for in the month of purchase and 75% in the following month.
f. The direct labor wage rate is $13 per hour. Each unit of finished goods requires two direct labor-hours.

4. What is the estimated raw materials inventory balance (in dollars) at the end of July?

Respuesta :

Explanation:

1. Budgeted sales for July = Budget sales unit × Selling price per unit

= 27,000 × $65

= $1,755,000

2. Expected cash collections for July = (Budget sales unit of June × Selling price per unit × Following month percentage) +  (Budgeted sales for July × finished goods inventory percentage)

= (9,600 × $65 × 70%) + ($1755,000 × 30%)

= $963,300

3. Accounts receivable balance at the end of July = Budgeted sales for July × Following month percentage

= $1,755,000 × 70%

= $1,228,500

4. The estimated raw materials inventory balance  is shown below:-

Budgeted sales for August = 29,000  

Add: Ending inventory for June = 9,000

(30,000 × 30%)  

Less: Beginning inventory = 8,700

(29,000 × 30%)  

Units to be produced = 29,300  

Raw materials per unit = 4  

Total raw materials required = 117,200

(29,300 × 4)  

Ending inventory(20%) = 23,440  

Cost per unit = 2.5  

Raw materials inventory balance = $58,600
