Solution
Soln : Here please refer the table , we can calculate the Planned Purchases @ Retail = Planned Sales +Reductions + Planned EOM - Planned BOM stock
Planned BOM stock = Planned Sales * Planned S/S ratio
Planned sales = We are considering Total of 100000*5% increase = 105000 for the 6 months given.
Planned reductions = Planned sales in month * % of reduction given
We can see here that the Planned Purchases @ Retail = $48412
It is nearer to Option C, hence it is the answer.
