In order to meet its obligations, the Byrd Company should purchase 10,700 pounds of direct materials.

The company currently has 1,000 pounds in inventory and would like to have 2,200 pounds at the end of production.

The current period requires 9,500 pounds to be used in production.

The purchases needed to achieve all this can be found by the formula:

Ending inventory = Beginning inventory + Purchases - Direct materials used

2,200 = 1,000 + Purchases - 9,500

Purchases = 9,500 + 2,200 - 1,000

Purchases = 10,700 pounds

In conclusion, the company should purchase 10,700 pounds
