Respuesta :

Answer:

Purchases= $52,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beginning inventory= $6,300

Ending balance= $3,300

Production= $55,000

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

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Purchases= 55,000 + 3,300 - 6,300

Purchases= $52,000
