Total………………………………….... 23,000 Kits 80,000 Kits
It is decided that finished kits inventories are to be 25,000 at the end of the second quarter and
5,000 at the end of the third quarter. The inventory at the beginning of the second quarter will
consist of 8,000 finished kits.
Each kit is packaged in a colorful cardboard box and contains 2 units of Material A and 5
units of Material B. The inventory of materials at the beginning of the second quarter will be:
Boxes 125000
Material A 15,000 units
Material B. 45,000 units
There are sufficient boxes on hand for both quarters, none will be purchased during the two
periods.
Material A can be bought whenever needed and in any quantity desired. The 15,000
units on hand is considered to be the ideal inventory quantity.
Material B must be purchased in quantities of 10,000 or multiples of 10,000. At the
end of both the second and third quarters, a minimum quantity of 30,000 units
should be on hand, or close thereto as the standard purchase quantity will permit.
Required:
(1) Schedule of ending inventories and budgeted production of kits for each quarter.
(2) The budgeted quantities and dollar amounts of purchase requirements for each material.

(b) The Board of Directors of Opal Limited while reviewing next year’s budgeted margins, as
calculated in (a) above, expressed their serious concerns on the projected profits. After careful
analysis of all activities by a cross-functional team of OL, the directors approved a plan of action

(i) Import of Material “A” from abroad at a cost of Rs.48 per unit, this is expected to
improve the overall yield by 12.5%.

proposed. The expected cost of the system is Rs.7.5 million with an expected useful life
of 5 years. An incentive scheme for the workers have also been proposed by allowing
them to share 45% of the time saved for making each unit of product.
The above measures are expected to reduce the average time for making each unit
of product by 30%.
(iii) Introduction of improved management standards which is expected to reduce the
variable overheads by 20%.
(iv) Re-assessment of controllable fixed overhead expenses. This is likely to reduce OL’s
existing fixed overheads by 15%.
