Spot Company's master budget shows expected sales of 10,000 units and expected production of 11,000 units for the month of March.
Each unit requires 1/2 hour of direct labor. The direct labor rate is $15.00 per hour. Calculate the expected total direct labor cost for t
he month of March:

 
$82,000

11,000 x 1/2 x 15 = 82,500

 

 
Carter Production Inc required production for the first six month of the year is as follows

Jan       50,000
Feb      70,000
Mar     85,000
Apr      105,000
May     110,000
Jun       120,000


Each unit requires two pounds of material. Given a desired ending inventory of 20% of the next month's
production needs, the pounds of material to be purchased in April is:

 
212,000 pounds

(105,000 x 2) + (110,000 x 2 x .20) 44,000 - (.20% x 105,000) = 212,000

 

 
A company's flexible budget for 15,000 units of production showed sales, $90,000; variable costs,
$37,500; and fixed costs, $25,000. The sales expected if the company produces and sells 19,000 units is:

 
$114,000
 
90,000 / 15,000 units = 6.00
6.00 × 19,000 units = 114,000
