Answer:

The budgeted production for May is 416 units

Explanation:

For computing the budgeted production the following equation is to be applied which is shown below:

= may sales units + closing inventory - opening inventory

where,

may sales units = 410 units

closing inventory is 30% of next month sales which means 30% of june which comes to be 30% × 430 = 129

and for  opening inventory the same ratio is applied i.e. 30% of current month sales which equals to 30% × 410 = 123

Now, apply these values to the above equation

= may sales units + closing inventory - opening inventory

= 410 + 129 - 123

= 416 units.

Thus, The budgeted production for May is 416 units
