=320 + 36 - 48 = 308 units

Lorie Nursery should produce during April 308 units

A) 308

Explanation:

The Ending inventory is calculated by deduction the sold unit from the sum of production for the year and beginning inventory for the year.

We calculate the production for the period using ending inventory formula.

Ending Inventory = Beginning Inventory + Production for the period - Sale in the period

As we know the ending inventory of prior month is the opening inventory of current month and ending inventory is 15% of next period sale.

Beginning Inventory = 320 x 15% = 48 units

Ending inventory = 240 x 15% = 36 units

Sale in April = 320 units

placing Value in the formula

36 units = 48 units + production in April - 320 units

36 units = production in April - 272 units

Production in April = 272 units + 36 units = 308 units
