Unit I
Answer
The figures given in the question
| Quarter | Sales in units |
|---|---|
| I | 30,000 |
| II | 37,500 |
| III | 41,250 |
| IV | 45,000 |
The opening stock of finished goods is 10,000 units and the company expects to maintain in closing stock of finished goods at 16,250 units at the end of year. The production pattern in each quarter is based on 80% of the sales of the current quarter and 20% of the sales of the next quarter.
The opening stock of raw material in the beginning of the year is 10,000 Kgs and the closing stock at the end of the year is required to be maintained at 5,000 Kgs. Each unit of finished output requires 2 Kgs of raw materials.
The company proposes to purchase the entire annual requirement of raw materials in the first three quarters in the proportion and at the prices are given below.
| Quarter | Purchase of raw materials % to total annual requirement in quantities | Price per Kg Rs. |
|---|---|---|
| I | 30% | 2 |
| II | 50% | 3 |
| III | 20% | 4 |
The value of the opening stock of raw materials in the beginning of the year is Rs. 20,000.
You are required to present the following for the next year quarterwise.
i) Production budget in units.
ii) Raw material consumption budget in quantites.
iii) Raw material purchase budget in quantity and value.
For full marks, cover: the annual production from sales and the two stocks of finished goods; the quarterly production on the 80 : 20 pattern, with the fourth quarter as the balance; a check of the finished stock quarter by quarter; (i) the production budget; (ii) the raw material consumption budget in kg; (iii) the purchases budget in kg and rupees for the three buying quarters; a check of the material stock; the value of consumption from the opening stock value, as a further check; and a conclusion.
Annual sales are 30,000 + 37,500 + 41,250 + 45,000 = 1,53,750 units. Production must cover sales and raise finished stock from 10,000 to 16,250 units: 1,53,750 + 16,250 - 10,000 = 1,60,000 units.
Each quarter produces 80 per cent of its own sales and 20 per cent of the next quarter's.
| Particulars | Quarter I | Quarter II | Quarter III | Quarter IV | Year |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Opening stock of finished goods | 10,000 | 11,500 | 12,250 | 13,000 | 10,000 |
| Add: Production | 31,500 | 38,250 | 42,000 | 48,250 | 1,60,000 |
| Available | 41,500 | 49,750 | 54,250 | 61,250 | 1,70,000 |
| Less: Sales | (30,000) | (37,500) | (41,250) | (45,000) | (1,53,750) |
| Total, closing stock of finished goods | 11,500 | 12,250 | 13,000 | 16,250 | 16,250 |
The closing stock of the fourth quarter comes out at the required 16,250 units, which confirms the balance taken for Quarter IV.
Each unit needs 2 kg of raw material.
| Particulars | Quarter I | Quarter II | Quarter III | Quarter IV | Year |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Production (units) | 31,500 | 38,250 | 42,000 | 48,250 | 1,60,000 |
| Consumption at 2 kg (kg) | 63,000 | 76,500 | 84,000 | 96,500 | 3,20,000 |
The annual requirement to be bought is consumption plus closing stock less opening stock: 3,20,000 + 5,000 - 10,000 = 3,15,000 kg. It is bought in the first three quarters in the ratio 30 : 50 : 20.
| Quarter | Qty | Rate | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| I (30 per cent) | 94,500 | 2 | 1,89,000 |
| II (50 per cent) | 1,57,500 | 3 | 4,72,500 |
| III (20 per cent) | 63,000 | 4 | 2,52,000 |
| IV | 0 | 0 | |
| Total | 3,15,000 | 9,13,500 |
The quantities are 3,15,000 × 30/100 = 94,500 kg, 3,15,000 × 50/100 = 1,57,500 kg and 3,15,000 × 20/100 = 63,000 kg.
| Particulars | Quarter I | Quarter II | Quarter III | Quarter IV |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Opening stock (kg) | 10,000 | 41,500 | 1,22,500 | 1,01,500 |
| Add: Purchases | 94,500 | 1,57,500 | 63,000 | 0 |
| Particulars | Quarter I | Quarter II | Quarter III | Quarter IV |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Available | 1,04,500 | 1,99,000 | 1,85,500 | 1,01,500 |
| Less: Consumption | (63,000) | (76,500) | (84,000) | (96,500) |
| Total, closing stock (kg) | 41,500 | 1,22,500 | 1,01,500 | 5,000 |
The year ends with the required 5,000 kg.
The opening stock of 10,000 kg is valued at Rs 20,000, that is Rs 2 a kg. Taking material out in the order bought:
Closing stock is 5,000 kg, and 5,000 × 4 = 20,000. In total, 20,000 + 9,13,500 = 9,33,500 rupees of material, against 1,26,000 + 1,88,000 + 2,52,000 + 3,47,500 + 20,000 = 9,33,500 consumed and held. The two agree.
Conclusion. (i) Production is budgeted at 31,500, 38,250, 42,000 and 48,250 units in the four quarters, 1,60,000 units in the year. (ii) Raw material consumption is 63,000, 76,500, 84,000 and 96,500 kg, 3,20,000 kg in all. (iii) Purchases are 94,500 kg (Rs 1,89,000), 1,57,500 kg (Rs 4,72,500) and 63,000 kg (Rs 2,52,000) in the first three quarters. That totals 3,15,000 kg costing Rs 9,13,500, with nothing bought in the fourth quarter.
