Production for Q2 12,700 units

Explanation:

Q2

sales for the quarter 11,000 units

desired ending inventory

20% of Q3

20% of 19,500 =      3,900 units

Total requirement   14,900 units

Beginning inventory

20% of Q2 sales

20% of 11,000 =      (2,200) units

Production for Q2   12,700 units

We add the sales and the desired inventory as the production needs.

The beginning inventory is subtracted, those units is work done towards the goal, so we need to produce the differente, which is 12,700 units.
