If Bodin Company plans to sell 476,000 units during the year, compute the number of units the firm would have to manufacture during the year. 2. If 508,000 finished units were to be manufactured by Bodin Company during the year, determine the amount of raw material to be purchased.

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1. The number of units to be manufactured during the year is

= Selling units + ending finished goods - opening finished goods

= 476,000 units + 75,000 units - 92,000 units

= 459,000 units

2. The raw material purchased amount is

= (508,000 × 5) + 49,000 - 42,000

= $2,547,000

The same would be relevant
