120. Stevens Company started the year with an inventory cost of $145,000. During the month of January, Stevens
purchased inventory that cost $53,000. January sales totaled $140,000. Estimated gross profit is 35%. The estimated
ending inventory as of January 31 is
a.
$58,000
b.
$91,000
c.
$107,000
d.
$69,300
ANSWER:
c
RATIONALE:
Estimated cost of goods sold = Sales for January – Estimated gross profit = $140,000 –
($140,000 × 35%) = $140,000 – $49,000 = $91,000
Estimated inventory, January 31 = Merchandise available for sale – Estimated cost of
goods sold = ($145,000 + 53,000) – $91,000 = $107,000

Net Realizable Value = Estimated Selling Price – Direct Costs of Disposal
Net Realizable Value = [(10 units × $7) + (5 units × $9)] – [(10 units × $2) + (5 units ×
$3)] = [($70 + $45) – ($20 + $15)] = $80
