    348000x0.7kg=243600kg used in production
    243000+7400 closing inventory =251000 kg sub total
    251000-8800 opening inventory =242200 purchase @ 1.45=£351190

    Closing inventory of finished goods is multiplied by the production cost per unit
    Closing inventory you take from the scenario, production cos per unit you get when you devide the total production cost to the number of production units

    I saw this and thought it might be useful for anybody else to see the figures used:

    Production cost: £974,400
    Total number of production units: 348,000
    974,400 / 348,000 = £2.80

    Closing inventory given in the Scenario of: 34,200 x £2.80
    = 95,760
