Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to determine the production budget using the following formula:

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Quarter 1:

Production= 10,000 + (0.25*12,000) - 2,500

Production= 10,500

Quarter 2:

Production= 12,000 + (0.25*14,000) - 3,000

Production= 12,500

Quarter 3:

Production= 14,000 + (0.25*16,000) - 3,500

Production= 14,500

Quarter 4:

Production= 16,000 - 4,000

Production= 12,000

Now, the direct material purchase budget:

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Quarter 1:

Purchase= 10,500*4 + (12,500*0.1) - 4,200

Purchase= 39,050 pounds

Quarter 2:

Purchase= 12,500*4 + (14,500*0.1) - 1,250

Purchase= 50,200 pounds

Quarter 3:

Purchase= 14,500*4 + (12,000*0.1) - 1,450

Purchase= 57,750 pounds

Quarter 4:

Purchase= 12,000*4 - 1,200

Purchase= 46,800 pounds
