You need to find Closing Stock ( Saleable stocks at 31 May 2011 will be equal to 2.0% of the number of tubs sold in the year.) 10218000 X 2.0%=204360
Production: Numbers of goods sold- OS+CS= 10218000-393000+204360=10029360.
Hope it will help.

Workings are:
the increase is 10p
10p divide by 320 opening balance = 0.03125 then multiply by 100 = 3.125%
Hope this is the question you were stuck on, if not let me know.
