    The correct answer is B.

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Budgeted Sales (at retail):

    January $300,000*0.60 = 180,000

    February $340,000*0.6 = 204,000

    March $400,000*0.6 = 240,000

    April $350,000

    Cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales 60%

    Desired ending inventory 75% of next month sales

    April:

    Purchase from March = (240,000*0.25) + (350,000*0.60*0.75) = 60,000 + 157,500 = $217,500
