This analysis looks at budgeted and actual sales from the previous year and adjusts those amounts to reflect economic conditions, shifts in trends, feedback from customers, and pricing changes.
In addition, the expected unit selling price for each product must be determined by examining previous pricing and profitability, current costs, the market demand for the products, and competitors’ pricing.

The budgeted sales in dollars equals the expected sales volume times the expected selling price per unit for each product. The sum of all products’ sales is ultimately transferred to the budgeted income statement.
Cost of goods sold is the next line item on the income statement. Five shorter, more targeted budgets are first prepared to arrive at key elements of the cost of goods sold budget.
- The production budget estimates the number of units of each product that will have to be manufactured to achieve the anticipated sales and inventory levels. It begins with the estimated number of units to be sold from the sales budget. The number of desired units in ending inventory is added to that to determine total number of units required. Since some of those needed are already in stock, those do not need to be produced. The total units that do need to be produced are those needed for sales and ending inventory minus those that are already in inventory at the start of the period.
The production budgets for the two companies’ products are as follows.

- The direct materials purchases budget estimates how much will be spent to buy the quantity of materials needed for production. It begins with the total number of units to be manufactured from the production budget.Each statue requires 8.6 pounds of metal, so the total number of pounds for production can be calculated. Each helmet requires both plastic and foam lining, and the total amount needed for production is determined for each type. The number of pounds that should remain in ending inventory is added to total pounds needed for production. Then, the number of pounds of materials in beginning inventory is deducted from total required since that amount is already in stock and does not need to be purchased. The number of pounds that does need to be purchased is multiplied by the cost per pound to get the total cost of materials purchases.
The direct materials purchases budgets for the two companies’ products are as follows.

- The direct materials cost budget looks at the total cost of materials available to be used in production by adding what was already on hand at the beginning of the year to what will be purchased during the year, taken from the direct materials purchases budget. From that total the remaining direct materials at the end of the year are deducted, since they were not used, to arrive at the cost of direct materials added to production during the year.
The direct materials cost budget can be presented in a summarized format, as shown for the souvenir statues, or with a greater level of detail, as is the case for the helmets, which require two types of materials rather than just one. The direct materials cost budgets for the two companies’ products are as follows.

- The direct labor cost budget estimates the second direct cost of a manufactured product, direct labor. It multiplies the number of units to be produced, taken from the production budget, by the number of hours per unit. That result is then multiplied by the labor rate per hour.

The direct labor cost budget for the helmets is a bit more detailed since it deals with two products that each require two different direct materials.
- The factory overhead cost budget estimates each of a number of fixed costs independently. The total of all the results is the budgeted factory overhead cost. The factory overhead cost budgets for both companies follow.
