Answer:

$183,200

Explanation:

Given that,

Direct labor = $86,000

Total current manufacturing costs = $381,000

Manufacturing overhead is applied to production:

= 130% of direct labor cost

= 1.30 × $86,000

= $111,800

Total manufacturing costs = Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead.

$381,000 = Direct material + $86,000 + $111,800

Direct material = $381,000 - $86,000 - $111,800

                         = $183,200

Therefore, the amount of direct materials used in production is $183,200.
