Answer:

The answer is 38,880

Explanation:

Solution

We recall that:

Tell cooperation plans to sell boxes = 900

The estimated production during May = 870 boxes

The Cost of f clay mix = $0.40 per pound

Each of the boxes requires = 44 pounds of clay mix

The company employees are paid per hour = $12.00

The manufacturing overhead = 110%

The beginning inventory, the teller has = 3900 pounds of clay mix

The ending inventory = 4,500

Now,

The total amount budgeted for the direct materials to be purchased for the month is stated as follows:

The materials budgeted to be purchased is = The budgeted production of materials *  the number of raw materials ) plus the ending - beginning inventory.

Thus

(870 * 44) + 4500- 3900

=38,880
