Answer 1

Answer: b) 190000 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Budgeted production is the number of units of products that must br manufactured. It is calculates by combining the sales forecast with the ending inventory of the finished goods and subtracting the beginning inventory of finished goods.

That is, budgeted production = budgeted sales

+ ending inventory (finished goods)

- beginning inventory (finished goods)

= 180000 + 33000 - 23000

= 190,000 units
