Explanation / Answer

1.

Material balance on 31st August = Beginning balance + Purchase materials – Used materials

                                                            = $25,000 + $60,000 - $50,000

                                                            = $35,000

2.

Cost of finished goods manufactured = Used materials + Direct labor cost + Beginning work in process – Ending work in process

                                                                = $50,000 + $25,000 + $47,000 - $65,000

                                                                 = $57,000
