Answer 1

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchases= $32,000

Beginning inventory= $7,800

Ending inventory= $4,400

To calculate the direct material used, we need to use the following formula:

Direct material used= beginning inventory + purchases - ending inventory

Direct material used= 7,800 + 32,000 - 4,400

Direct material used= $35,400
