Go-Spa Enterprises is a
portable hot tub manufacturer. The company produces both 2-person and 4-person hot tubs. John Ireland, the company's sales manager, prepared the following sales forecast for 2021. The forecasted sales prices include a 5 percent increase in the 2-person spa price and a 10 percent increase in the 4-person spa price, to cover anticipated increases in raw materials prices.
| | | Sales Price | 1st Quarter | 2nd Quarter | 3rd Quarter | 4th Quarter |
| 2-person spa | $1,250 | 500 | 500 | 400 | 600 |
| 4-person spa | $2,600 | 200 | 100 | 100 | 200 |
Required:
| a. | Prepare Go-Spa's sales budget for 2021. Omit the heading. |
| b. | On December 31, 2020, Go-Spa had 80 2-person spas in stock—fewer than the desired |
inventory level of 100, based on the following quarter's sales. The company has budgeted for sales of 450 2-person spas in the first quarter of 2022. Prepare the 2021 production budget for 2-person spas. Omit the heading.
| c. | Each 2-person spa requires a pump motor, which Go-Spa purchases for $160. On |
December 31, 2020, Go Spa had 400 pump motors in inventory. Damage during the installation process results in a standard quantity of 1.2 motors per spa. Because of recent delivery problems, Go-Spa wants to maintain an ending inventory equal to 50 percent of the following quarter's production needs. Since the supplier has assured Go-Spa that the delivery issues will be resolved by the end of December, Go-Spa wants only 300 motors in inventory on December 31, 2021. Prepare the purchases budget for motors for 2021.
