Four grams of musk oil are required for each bottle of Mink Caress, a very
popular perfume made by a small company in western Siberia. The cost of
the musk oil is $1.60 per gram. Budgeted production of Mink Caress is
given below by quarters for Year 2 and for the first quarter of Year 3:
Year 2

First | Second | Third | Fourth | First | |||
Budgeted production, in bottles | 90,000 | 120,000 | 180,000 | 130,000 | 100,000 | ||
Musk
oil has become so popular as a perfume ingredient that it has become
necessary to carry large inventories as a precaution against stock-outs.
For this reason, the inventory of musk oil at the end of a quarter must
be equal to 20% of the following quarter’s production needs. Some
72,000 grams of musk oil will be on hand to start the first quarter of
Year 2.

Required: |
Prepare a direct materials budget for musk oil, by quarter and in total, for Year 2. (Round "Unit cost of raw materials" answers to 2 decimal places.)
