a company plans to sell 2400 units of product R next year . Opening inventory of R is expected to be 2000 units and company pplans to increase inventory by 25% by the end of the year . How many units of product R should be produced next year ? sir we should use : productiuon = sales +closing inventory - opening inventory so on what we should take 25% on sales or opening inventory ? and how to do the question .?

Production does not equal sales + opening inventory - closing inventory! Sales = opening inventory + production - closing inventory. If they plan to increase inventory by 25%, then the closing inventory will be 25% more than the opening inventory.
