    Total production = 142,250

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Sales (in units):

    May=138,000

    June = 155,000

    At the end of each month the company desires its ending finished goods inventory to be 25% of the next month's projected sales (in units).

    To calculate the units to be produced in May, we need to use the following formula:

    Production = sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

    Budgeted production:

    Sales = 138,000

    Desired ending inventory = (155,000*0.25) = 38,750

    Beginning inventory = (138,000*0.25) = (34,500)

    Total production = 142,250
