Respuesta :

Answer:

option (b) 681,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Beginning inventory in units = 1,800

Sales budgeted for the quarter = 678,000

Capacity in units of production facility = 708,000

Now,

Finished goods units should be produced during the quarter

= Sales + units available - Beginning inventory

on substituting the respective values, we get

= 678,000 + 4800  - 1,800

= 681,000

Hence, the correct answer is option (b) 681,000
