Answer:

Company want to have finished goods inventory equal to 30% of next quarter's budgeted sales figure in current quartet.

Means if first quarter is going then 30% of second quarter budgeted sales unit stock should there.(in the 1st quarter).

So in the first quarter company should have 30% of second quarter budgeted sales unit.

2nd quarter budgeted sales unit is 160,000.

then,

30% of 160,000

30% * 160,000

= 48,000 units

So there should 48,000 finished goods inventory during the first quarter.
