Answer:

Budgeted purchases of inventory in February Year 2 would be $69,800

Explanation:

___________CGS _Ending Inventory_Beginning Inventory _ Purchases

Dec. Year 1 _$30,000 _ $20,400 _____ $0 _____________$0

Jan. Year 2 _$60,000 _$27,200 _____ $20,400_________$66,800

Feb. Year 2 _$80,000_ $17,000 ______$27,200_________$69,800

Use following formula to calculate the Purchases

Cost of Goods sold = Beginning Inventory + Purchases - Ending Inventory

Purchases = Cost of Goods sold - Beginning Inventory + Ending Inventory

Placing value of Jan Year 2

Purchases = $60,000 - $20,400 + $27,200 = $66,800

Placing value of Feb Year 2

Purchases = $80,000 - $27,200 + $17,000 = $69,800
