A firm desires a finished goods ending inventory equal to 25% of the following month's budgeted sales. January sales are budgeted at 10,000 units and February at 12,000 units. Each unit requires 2 pounds of Material X, which costs $4 per pound. The company has a just-in-time system and materials are delivered daily just prior to use, so no raw materials inventories are maintained. Materials are paid for in the month following purchase. The January 1 finished goods inventory is 2,500 units. In February, what amount should the company expect to pay as a cash outflow for raw materials?

Employee benefits expense.
