    Budgeted production for February should be 212700 Pounds.

    Explanation:

    Marst Corporation

    January February March

    Budgeted production (in units) 70,900? 84,500

    Budgeted raw materials purchases (in pounds) 197,769 165,100 163,300

    As each month ending inventory is equal to 21% of the following month's production needs therefore

    21% of Feb Production = Jan Ending Inventory 44,667 pounds

    Rearranging

    February Production = 44,667/21%

    February Production = (44,667/21) * 100

    February Production = 2127 * 100 = 212700 Pounds.
