Answer:

Production= 1,240 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales:

February= 1,250

March= 1,200

Desired ending finished goods inventory is equal to 20 percent of the next month's sales.

To determine the production required for February, we need to use the following formula:

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Production= 1,250 + (1,200*0.2) - (1,250*0.2)

Production= 1,240 units
