Budget info

· Inventories of finished goods on hand at the end of each month are to be equal to 60% of the following months budgeted sales.

· As of June 30th the company had 174 wigs in inventory.

· Each wig requires 25 ounces of guinea pig fur, which the company purchases for $6 per ounce.

· It is company policy to keep enough guinea pig fur to meet 80% of the next month’s production needs.

· Purchases of raw materials are paid for as follows: 25% in the month of purchase and the remaining 75% in the following month.

· Bad debts have been negligible.

· Each wig requires 20 hours to hand stitch.

· Employees who make the wigs are paid $25 per hour and never work overtime (i.e. the company has enough casual workers that they can call in if additional work is required).

· Manufacturing overhead includes all the costs of production other than direct materials and direct labour.

· The variable component is $45 per wig in production and the fixed component is $45,000 per month (this amount includes depreciation of $2,000 per month on the sewing machines and drying racks).

· Direct labour hours is used as an allocation base for assigning manufacturing overhead to units produced.

Due to the planned introduction of a new model of wig “The Stormy Special” the company is expecting a big increase in sales for Christmas.

To accommodate the expected increase in demand the company will be purchasing a new industrial die machine in July for $60,000 and some new sewing machines in August for $70,000.
