Answer:

Materials used in production 113,120

Explanation:

The credited overehad will be 60% of direct labor

thus: 90,720/0.6 = 151,200 direct labor

Then debit for finished good is the WIP completed during the period so we can use it to solbe for material now:

Beginning WIP        100,800

Materials                      X

Labor                         151,200

Overhead                  90,720

Transferred-out     (324,800)  

Ending WIP               131,040

Materials =   Ending WIP + transferred-out - DL - MO

Materials =      113,120
