Answer:

The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

To guard against stockouts, the company requires that 25% of the next month's sales.

Budgeted sales of Product:

August= 50,000

September= 80,000

To calculate the production budget, we need to use the following formula:

Production for August= expected sales + ending inventory - beginning inventory

Production budget:

Sales= 50,000

Ending incentory= (80,000*0.25)= 20,000

Beginning inventory= (50,000*0.25)= (12,500)

Total= 57,500 units
