Can u guide me step by step..

You said that the sales in the FIRST quarter is expected to increase by 30%. What about other quarters?

If all quarters have 30% increase the add 30% to sales of 2007 quarters and proceed from there. I will do it for you for the first quarter.
Sales 5000 + 1500 = 6500
Ending inventory 2nd qtr. 7000+2100=9100×40%= 3640
Beginning inventory 5000 x 40% = 2000
Production 8140
