    Number board feet of lumber = 54,530

    Explanation:

    As per the data given in the question,

    Number board feet of lumber to buy in June = Number of units to be produced + Ending inventory required - Opening inventory needed

    = (2,000 cases * 28 board feet of lumber per case) + (1,850 cases * 35% * 28 board feet to lumber per case) - (2,000 cases * 35% * 28 board feet of lumber per case)

    =56,000 board feet + 18,130 board feet - 19,600 board feet

    = 54,530 board feet of lumber

    We simply applied the above formula
