What is the total of raw materials consumed?
Answer Details
The total of raw materials consumed can be calculated by adding the opening stock of raw materials to the purchases made during the year, and then subtracting the closing stock of raw materials. Opening stock of raw materials = N10,000 Purchases of raw materials = N60,000 Less: Closing stock of raw materials = N8,000 Therefore, the total of raw materials consumed is: N10,000 + N60,000 - N8,000 = N62,000 Therefore, the correct answer is N62,000.
