Accounts payable Ledger a/c ( for supplies purchased) | ||||
30-Sep-16 | Beginning balance | 26000 | ||
New purchases(Plug-in figure) | 83000 | |||
Cash payments to suppliers | 92000 | |||
15-Jul-17 | Ending balance | 17000 | ||

Value of direct materials used in the 9 1/2 month period ended July 15, 2017 | ||||
Supplies inventory ledger a/c (direct and indirect materials) | ||||
30-Sep-16 | Beginning balance | 130000 | ||
New purchases | 83000 | |||
Materials used(Plug-in figure) | 100000 | |||
15-Jul-17 | Ending balance | 113000 | ||
213000 | 213000 | |||
Materials used(as above) | 100000 | |||

So, direct materials used(100000-7800)= | 92200 | |||
(b) Value of direct labour incurred in the 9 1/2 month period ended July 15, 2017 | ||||
Payroll (including $10,300 indirect) | 96,600 | |||
