    The correct answer is option (a).

    Explanation:

    According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

    Budgeted unit sales = 204,000 units

    Opening stock = 61,200 units

    Closing stock = 240,000 * 30% = 72,000 units

    We can calculate the units should be produced by using following formula:-

    Produced unit = Budgeted unit sales + Closing stock - Opening stock

    = 204,000 + 72,000 - 61,200

    = 214,800 units

    Company should have produced 214,800 units in January, 2020 to meet its goal.
