Next year's Opening Inventory = 800kg
Increase in material inventory by end of next year = 20%.
20% of 800kg = 160kg.
Therefore, next year's Closing Inventory = 800+160=960kg.
Required Material = 5000 units x 2kg = 10,000kg.

Total Units Required / Consumption = Opening Stock + Purchases - Closing Stock
=> 800+10,000-960= 9,840
