Given the sales volume of 1,660 units in month 1 and 230 units in closing, subtract any initial inventory to find production.

Right, so for month 2, 10% of 2,300 units will be the closing inventory for month 1.

I think we need to focus on the inventory policy. Holding 10% of next month's sales is key.
