    The $353,600 should be requisitioned for use on jobs during 2017

    Explanation:

    For computing how much inventory is consumed during 2017, the following equation should be used.

    Raw material consumed = Opening raw material balance + purchase of raw material - ending raw material balance

    So, it is equal to

    = $1,600 + $354,000 - $2,000

    = $353,600

    The paid value which is related to the inventory is not been considered. Thus, it is irrelevant portion which is ignored in the computation part. Rest values should be taken for computation part.

    Hence, the $353,600 should be requisitioned for use on jobs during 2017
