    The correct answer is A.

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    To guard against stockouts, the company requires that 25% of the next month's sales.

    Budgeted sales of Product:

    August = 50,000

    September = 80,000

    To calculate the production budget, we need to use the following formula:

    Production for August = expected sales + ending inventory - beginning inventory

    Production budget:

    Sales = 50,000

    Ending incentory = (80,000*0.25) = 20,000

    Beginning inventory = (50,000*0.25) = (12,500)

    Total = 57,500 units
