    d. 18,570 pounds

    Explanation:

    The computation of the raw material purchased for the month of February is shown below:

    = Production in units + ending inventory - beginning inventory

    where,

    Production in units = 19,200

    Ending inventory is

    = 17,100 * 30% * 1

    = 5,130

    And, the beginning inventory is

    = 19,200 * 30% * 1

    = 5,760

    So, the raw material purchased for the month of February is

    = 19,200 + 5,130 - 5,760

    = 18,570 pounds

    We simply applied the above formulas
