Answer:

Purchase= 14,500 pounds

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

the total pounds needed for production in the current period is 14,000. Beginning inventory= 2,000 pounds

Desired ending inventory= 2,500 pounds

To calculate the direct material purchase, we need to use the following formula:

Purchase= direct material for the period + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Purchase= 14,000 + 2,500 - 2,000

Purchase= 14,500 pounds
