6.4. Production Budget
After sales are budgeted, the production budget can be determined. The production budget is a statement of the output by product and is generally expressed in units. It should take into account the sales budget, plant capacity, whether stocks are to be increased or decreased, and outside purchases. The number of units expected to be manufactured to meet budgeted sales and inventory requirements is set forth in the production budget.
- Expected production volume = Planning sales + Desired ending inventory − Begining inventory
The production budget is illustrated in Schedule 2.
