Patrick Inc. makes industrial solvents sold in five-gallon drums. Planned production in units for the first three months of the coming year is:
January
40,000
February
50,000
March
65,000
Each drum requires 6 gallons of chemicals and one plastic drum. Company policy requires that ending inventories of raw materials for each month be 20 percent of the next month’s production needs. That policy was met for the ending inventory of December in the prior year. The cost of one gallon of chemicals is $2.00. The cost of one drum is $1.60.
1. Calculate the ending inventory of chemicals in gallons for December of the prior year, and for January and February. What is the beginning inventory of chemicals for January? Round your answers to the nearest whole gallon.
Ending inventory for December: _________________ gallons
Ending inventory for January: _________________ gallons
Ending inventory for February: _________________ gallons
Beginning inventory for January: _________________ gallons
2. Prepare a direct materials purchases budget for chemicals for the months of January and February. Round Gallons per unit to one decimal place. Round Price per gallon to the nearest cent. Round Dollar purchases to the nearest dollar. Round all the other values to the nearest whole unit. Do not include a multiplication symbol as part of your answer.

I really appreciate the work all your amazing writers do to ensure that my papers are always delivered on time and always of the highest quality. I was at a crossroads last semester and I almost dropped out of school because of the many issues that were bombarding but I am glad a friend referred me to you guys. You came up big for me and continue to do so. I just wish I knew about your services earlier.
