Mongelli Family Inn is a bed and breakfast establishment in a converted 100-year-old mansion. The
Inn's guests appreciate its gourmet breakfasts and individually decorated rooms. The Inn's
overhead budget for the most recent month appears below:
 
Activity level 90 guests
Variable overhead costs:  
Supplies $234
Laundry $315
Fixed overhead costs:  
Utilities $220
Salaries and wages $4,290
Depreciation $2,680
Total overhead cost $7,739

The Inn's variable overhead costs are driven by the number of guests.

Assuming that the activity levels of 90 guests and 99 guests are within the same relevant range
and rounding to the nearest dollar, what would be the total budgeted overhead cost for a month if
the activity level is 99 guests? (Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar).

 $7,794

 $61,541

 $8,513

 $7,739

($234 + $315)/90 = $6.10. Total = 99 * $6.10 + $220 + $4,290 + $2,680 = $7,794.

February 36,000 units
March 61,000 units
April 41,000 units
May 31,000 units

The inventory of finished goods at the end of each month should equal 20% of the next month's
sales. However, on December 31, the finished goods inventory totalled only 4,000 units.

Each unit of product requires three specialized electrical switches. Since the production of these
specialized switches by Key's suppliers is sometimes irregular, the company has a policy of
maintaining an ending inventory at the end of each month equal to 30% of the next month's
production needs. This requirement had been met on January 1 of the current year.

Required:

Prepare a budget showing the quantity of switches to be purchased each month for January,
February, and March, and in total for the quarter.
