PART 1
Carlton Ltd operates at capacity and makes glass-topped dining tables and wooden chairs which are then typically sold as sets of four chairs with one table. However, some customers purchase replacement or extra chairs and others buy some chairs or a table only, so the sales mix is not exactly 4:1. The company is planning its annual budget for the financial year 2015. The following information has been compiled for the budgetary process:

Delivery trucks transport units sold in delivery sizes of 500 chairs or 500 tables.
Required:
For the year 2015:
a. Prepare the sales budget.
b. Prepare the production budget in units.
c. Prepare the direct material usage budget and the direct material purchases budget.
d. Prepare the direct manufacturing labour cost budget.
e. Prepare the manufacturing overhead cost budget.
f. Prepare the budgeted unit cost of ending finished goods inventory and ending inventories budget.
g. Prepare the non-manufacturing overhead costs budget.
h. Prepare a budgeted income statement (ignore income taxes).
i. Compare the budgeted unit cost of a chair to its budgeted selling price. Why might the company continue to sell the chairs for only $80?
