Answer 1

Answer: d. 36,000

Step-by-step explanation:

February Production Units = Sales + Closing Inventory - Opening inventory

Closing Inventory

= 30% of following month's sales

= 30% * March sales

= 30% * 50,000

= 15,000

Opening Inventory February = Closing inventory for January

= 30% * February sales

= 30% * 30,000

= 9,000

February Production Units = Sales + Closing Inventory - Opening inventory

= 30,000 + 15,000 - 9,000

= 36,000
