Hayes Company

Inadequate inventories could result in temporary shutdowns of production. Because of its close proximity to suppliers,

Hayes Company maintains an ending inventory of raw materials equal to 10% of the next quarter’s production requirements.

The manufacture of each Kitchen Mate requires 2 pounds of raw materials, and the expected cost per pound is $4.

Assume that the desired ending direct materials amount is 1,020 pounds for the fourth quarter of 2011.

Prepare a Direct Materials Budget.
