2. The June 30 finished goods inventory is 16,800 units.
3. Company policy calls for a given month's ending finished goods inventory to equal 70% of the next month's expected unit sales.
4. The June 30 raw materials inventory is 4,600 units. The budgeted September 30 raw materials inventory is 1,980 units. Raw materials cost $7.75 per unit. Each finished unit requires 0.50 units of raw materials. Company policy calls for a given month's ending raw materials inventory to equal 20% of the next month's materials requirements.
5. Each finished unit requires 0.50 hours of direct labor at a rate of $16 per hour.
6. Overhead is allocated based on units of production. The predetermined variable overhead rate is $1.35 per unit produced. Depreciation of $20,000 per month is treated as fixed factory overhead.
7. Monthly general and administrative expenses include $12,000 administrative salaries and 0.9% monthly interest on the long-term note payable.
8. Sales commissions are 12% of sales and are paid in the month of the sales. The sales manager's monthly salary is $3,750 per month. The following critical elements must be addressed by completing the budget templates found on the "Budgets" tab.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed when creating an Operating Budget by completing the budget templates found on the "Budgets" tab of your student workbook.
Step 1: Prepare a Sales Budget
• Complete Part A - Sales Budget on the budget tab by using the information found in the budgeted balance sheet above.
• Consider assumption 1 while completing this critical element: Sales were 20,000 units in June 2015. Forecasted sales in units are as follows: July, 18,000; August, 22,000; September, 20,000; October, 24,000. The sales price per unit is $18.00 and the total product cost is $14.35 per unit.
• You can find an example of a sales budget in Exhibit 22-5 on page 1324.
Step 2: Prepare a Production Budget
• Complete Part C - Production Budget on the budget tab below by using the information found in the budgeted balance sheet above.
• Consider assumption 1 while completing this critical element: Sales were 20,000 units in June 2015. Forecasted sales in units are as follows: July, 18,000; August, 22,000; September, 20,000; October, 24,000. The sales price per unit is $18.00 and the total product cost is $14.35 per unit.

• Consider assumption 3 while completing this critical element: Company policy calls for a given month's ending finished goods inventory to equal 70% of the next month's expected unit sales.
• You can find an example of a production budget in Exhibit 22-6 on page 1325.
Step 3: Prepare a Manufacturing Budget.
Complete Part E - Manufacturing Budget on the budget tab by using the information found in the budgeted balance sheet above. The manufacturing budget consists of three parts, the Raw Materials Budget, the Direct Labor Budget, and the Factory Overhead Budget.
Raw Material Budget
• Consider assumption 4 while completing this critical element: The June 30 raw materials inventory is 4,600 units. The budgeted September 30 raw materials inventory is 1,980 units. Raw materials cost $7.75 per unit. Each finished unit requires 0.50 units of raw materials. Company policy calls for a given month's ending raw materials inventory to equal 20% of the next month's materials requirements.
• Consider units to be produced found in the production budget while completing this critical element.
Direct Labor Budget
• Consider assumption 5 while completing this critical element: Each finished unit requires 0.50 hours of direct labor at a rate of $16 per hour.
• Consider units to be produced found in the production budget while completing this critical element.
Factory Overhead Budget
• Consider assumption 6 while completing this critical element: Overhead is allocated based on units of production. The predetermined variable overhead rate is $1.35 per unit produced. Depreciation of $20,000 per month is treated as fixed factory overhead.

The actual quantity of material used was 31,000 with an actual cost of $7.75 per unit. The actual labor hours were 33,000 with an actual rate per hours of $15.
Step 1: Complete A. Develop a variance analysis including a Budget Variance performance report and appropriate variances for materials, labor, and overhead.
• Start with the Labor and Materials variance tab.
• Standard costs/quantities come from raw materials budget and the labor budget.
• Use Exhibits 23-11 on page 1416 and 23-12 on page 1419 as guides.
• After completing the Labor and Materials variance tab, transfer variances to Budget Variance Report tab.
