    Purchases = 1,085

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    It expects to sell 1,100 units of Luxuria in 2019

    Beginning inventory:

    Luxuria = 125

    Ending inventory:

    Luxuria = 210 units of Luxuria.

    Each Luxuria watch requires one unit of Crimpson and has to be imported at a cost of $15. There were 100 units of Crimpson in stock at the end of 2018.

    First, we need to determine the number of Luxuria to be produced:

    Production = sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

    Production = 1,100 + 210 - 125 = 1,185

    Now, we can determine the number of Crimpson to be purchased:

    Purchases = production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

    Purchases = 1,185 + 0 - 100

    Purchases = 1,085
