    = $52,050

    Explanation:

    First, the question is as follows:

    Calculate the number of pounds of raw material to be purchased in June

    Solution

    Step One: We determine what was produced in June and in July as follows

    Budgeted Production = Budgeted sales + The desired closing inventory of finished products - the estimated opening inventory of finished products

    Budgeted Production in June = $15,600 + (0.3 x 19,600) - $4,680 (This is the ending inventory figure from May) = $16,800 Budgeted Production in July = $19,600 - (17,600 units x 0.3) - $5,880 (this is the opening inventory calculated for June above) = $19,000

    Step 2 : Determine the Purchased raw materials for June

    = (Production in June x 3) + Production in July x 3 x 0.25) - (Production in June x 3 x 0.25)

    = 50,400 + $14,250 - $12,600 = $52,050
