Step-by-step explanation:

Desired ending direct material

Particulars                                                                       pounds

Beginning direct material (24000*3.5)                             84,000

Add: purchases                                                                  24,000

Direct material available for production                           1,08,000

Less: Direct material required for production                  72,000

Desired ending direct material                                          36,000

therefore, the desire ending direct material are 36,000 pounds
