    Co makes a component M which uses 3 kg of raw mat. The open.inventory at the start of next year as follows:
    Op invent of raw mat X 5000 kg @$4
    Op invent of component M 3000 units

    Budgeted sales of component M are expected to be 48000 units (occurring evenly throughout the year)

    Closing invent:

    Raw mat X Ones month worth of production
    Component M Two months worth of sale

    A. How many units of component M are to be produced in the year (I’ve already found 53000 units of M)

    B. How many kg of mat X Are required for production in the year (also found 159000 kg)

    C. What is material X purchases budget in $ I don’t know!

    The answer 96000/12 + 159000 – 5000
    I don’t understand why 96000?

    I think you must have got this from the BPP book, and their answer is wrong.

    It should be (48000 x 3)/12
