a. 428000
b. 424000
c. 474000
d. 429400

428,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Beginning inventory = 1400 units

Sales budgeted for the quarter = 426,000

Capacity in units of production facility = 472000

Desired ending inventory = 3400

Now,

The total number of units desired

= Sales + Desired ending inventory

= 426,000 + 3400

= 429,400

Total units to be produced

= The total number of units desired - Beginning inventory

= 429,400 - 1400

= 428,000
