Answer:

The total number of paints used for the month = $350

Explanation:

Given that:

Spackle paint had a beginning inventory of 10 can of paint at $25 per can =

10× $25 = $250

They purchased 20 at $30 per can.

The amount of the 20 purchased can = 20 × $30 = $600

The total inventory for this supply = $600 + $250

= $850

They had an ending inventory valued 500.

The total number of paints used for the month = total inventory - ending inventory

The total number of paints used for the month = $850 - $500

The total number of paints used for the month = $350
