    5625 units of item #780

    Explanation:

    15,000 units in a year.

    There are 4 quarters in a year.

    So, that would mean:

    15,000/4 = 3750 evenly per quarter

    But for 2nd quarter, the seasonal relative is given as 1.50. This means that the demand for that product (according to forecast) will be actually 1.50 times of the normal (according to marketing dept.).

    So, 3750 * 1.5 = 5625

    Hence, 5625 items of Item #780 will be ordered just during the second fiscal quarter.
