    Production budget 17,900

    Explanation:

    First, we will calculate the units requirement, that will be the sales for the quarter and the desired ending inventory:

    sales of Q1 15,000

    desired ending 20% of Q2 sales

    20% x 35,000 = 7,000

    Total requirement 22,000

    Next we subtract the beginning inventory, because those units are already produced, so it decrease our production needs

    Total requirement 22,000

    beginning inventory (4,100)

    Production budget 17,900
