    285,000 of raw material

    Explanation:

    Ending balance = beginning balance + purchase - used

    17,700 = 11,700 + purchase - 92,000

    Purchase = 98,000

    Raw material:

    = Purchase * 3

    = 98,000 * 3

    = 294,000

    Further, we know that we can have raw material inventory

    = 20,700 - 29,700

    = 9,000

    9,000 less than starting

    So, we can just purchase:

    = 294,000 - 9,000

    = 285,000 of raw material
