Answer 1

Answer:

$209,500

Explanation:

Given that,

Beginning balance in Raw Materials Inventory = $ 13,600

Purchases of raw material = $211,000

Ending balance in Raw Materials Inventory = $15,100

Cost of direct materials transferred into production:

= Beginning balance in Raw Materials Inventory + Purchases - Ending balance in Raw Materials Inventory

= $ 13,600 + $211,000 - $15,100

= $209,500
