Question 50A-3 Volume 3

[jfish22]

This may be very simle and I'm having a brain fart. In Problem 50A-3 in the CFA books how do you get the quantity to figure out this problem? Is there an easy way to get it?? the answer in the back of the book uses 200,000 for Q but I can't seem to figure out why or how they got that number?

If you post the entire question you will be more likely to get an answer. Not everyone has those books.

Study Session 11, Reading 50: In the custom curriculum only, on page 184, Problem 50A-3
(for Appendix 50A) did not show the sales forecast of 200,000 units for the coming year.

I remember that questions! It wasn't until a couple days later when I looked at hte Errata did I notice that it was missing the 200,000. I just dismissed it originally b/c i knew how to do the problem.
