Fill in the blanks to complete the sentence. A manufacturing company has budgeted production at 5,000 units for May and 4,400 units in June. Each unit requires 3 pounds of materials at a cost of $10 per pound. On May 1, there are 2,750 pounds of materials on hand. The company desires an ending inventory of 60% of the next month's materials requirements. The total cost of direct materials purchases for May will be $ .

Direct material purchases in May = 21,670× $10= $216,700

Explanation:

Material purchase budget is determined by adding the closing inventory of material to the material usage budget less the opening inventory.

Material budgets for May will be prepared as follows:

Materials needed for May production = 5,500 × 3 = 16,500

Materials needed for June production = 4,400× 3= 13,200

Closing inventory of raw material in May =60% × June requirement = 60% × 13,200 =7,920

 Material purchase budget for February = Usage budget + closing inventory - opening inventory

= 16,500 + 7,920- 2,750=21,670

Direct material purchases in May = 21,670× $10= $216,700
