    September sales units = 60,000

    Explanation:

    From the question stated we will work on the production budget in reverse and the August data to find the solution

    Recall that,

    July : sales in units = 45,000, Production in units = 45,700

    August: sales in units = 57,000, Production in units = 57,300

    September: sales in units = unknown, Production in units = 61,650

    Then,

    August budget unit = 57,300

    The Beginning inventory = 5,700 (10% of 57,000)

    The Units required in August = 63,000

    The sales in July units = 57,000

    The desired ending inventory = 10% of September's sales unit

    September sales units = 60,000

    Now

    September sales units = 60,000

    Desired ending inventory = 7,650

    Units required = 67,650

    Beginning inventory = (6,000)

    Therefore,

    September production units is given as = 61,650
