This is because in order to have 10,000 units on hand at the end of the year, ABC needs to produce enough units to cover their sales (100,000 units) and add on the desired ending inventory (10,000 units) while also taking into account their beginning inventory (5,000 units). This results in the need to produce 105,000 units (5,000 + 105,000 - 100,000 = 10,000).
