    Production budget for First quarter = 16,500 units

    Explanation:

    The production budgeted for a particular period is the expected units to be produced after adjusting the sales budget figures for opening and closing inventories.

    Production = Sales volume + closing inventory - opening inventory

    Closing inventory = 20% * second quarter sales

    = 20% * 20,000 = 4,000 units

    Production budget for the first quarter

    =17,000 + 4000 - 4500

    = 16,500 units
