Explanation / Answer

a. Determine the number of units of product K to be manufactured in May.
120,000 + 60,000 – 55,000 = 125,000 units required to be produced

b. Compute the May cash outlay for purchases of raw material A.
     Total raw materials required =
                                       125,000 x 4 = 500,000 units
      Add : Ending inventory                       37,000 units
     Total raw materials required              537,000 units
      Less : Beginning balance                    40,000 units
      Raw materials to be purchased       497,000 units
      497,000 x 80% = 397,600 x 8 x 98%    $3,117,184
      497,000 x 20% = 99,400 x 8                 $795,200
      Total May cash outlay for RM                $3,912,384
