Respuesta :

Answer:

$28,675 = direct materials used

Explanation:

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

Cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials used + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP

112,450= 23,600 + direct materials used + (22,550*2.5) + 22,550 - 18,750

112,450 - 23,600 - 56,375 - 22,550 + 18,750 = direct materials used

$28,675 = direct materials used
