Blossom Inc. uses the conventional retail method to determine its ending inventory at cost. Assume the beginning inventory at cost (retail) were $403500 ($604000), purchases during the current year at cost (retail) were $3608000 ($5393600), freight-in on these purchases totaled $169500, sales during the current year totaled $4866000, and net markups were $424000. What is the ending inventory value at cost

Respuesta :

Answer:

$1,012,696

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

At Cost method:

Merchandise available for sale is :

= Beginning inventory + Purchases + Fright-in

= $403,500 + $3,608,000 + $169,500

= $4,181,000

At Retail method:

Merchandise available for sale:

= Beginning inventory + Purchases + Markups

= $604,000 + $5,393,600 + $424,000

= $6,421,600

Now

Ending inventory at retail is

= Retail  - Markdowns - Net sales

= $6,421,600 - $0 - $4,866,000

= $1,555,600

Now

Cost to retail ratio is

= $4,181,000÷ ($4,866,000 + $1,555,600)

= 65.10%

And finally the ending inventory at cost is

= $1,555,600 × 65.10%

= $1,012,696
