10% of the next month's sales in units should be on hand at the end of each month.
October sales are expected to be 81,500 units.
Ending inventory of September = 10% of sales of October
= 81,500 x 10%
= 8,150
Ending inventory of July = 10% of sales of August
= 62,000 x 10%
= 6,200
Ending inventory of July will be the beginning inventory of August
August Sales units = Beginning inventory of August + Production in August - Ending inventory of August
62,000 = 6,200 + 62,300 - Ending inventory of August
Ending inventory of August = 6,500 units
Ending inventory of August will be the beginning inventory of September
September Sales units = Beginning inventory of September + Production in September - Ending inventory of September
= 6,500 + 66,650 - 8,150
= 65,000
