Answer:

total budgeted direct materials = $24,750

Explanation:

production budget x materials needed:

April = 21,000 x 0.5 lbs = 10,500 pounds

May = 22,000 x 0.5 lbs = 11,000 pounds

June = 24,000 x 0.5 lbs = 12,000 pounds

  • beginning inventory = 11,000 x 25% = 2,750 lbs
  • production requirements = 11,000 lbs
  • ending inventory = 12,000 x 25% = 3,000 lbs

direct materials budget May:

budgeted production                          22,000 units

materials per unit                                0.5 lbs

materials needed for production       11,000 lbs

budgeted ending inventory                3,000 lbs

budgeted beginning inventory          2,750 lbs.

materials to be purchased                 11,000 + 3,000 - 2,750 = 11,250 lbs

price per pound                                  $2.20

total budgeted direct materials         $24,750
