Answer:

Direct material used=  $123,600

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

January 1 December 31

Inventories

Raw materials inventory $8,900 $11,300

Materials purchased $126,000

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

Direct material used= beginning inventory + purchases - ending inventory

Direct material used=  8.900 + 126,000 - 11,300

Direct material used=  $123,600
