(b) Rochelle Company should include goods shipped to another company on consignment in its

5. Inventoriable costs are $3,020 (invoice cost $3,000 + freight charges $50 – purchase discounts $30).

6. FOB shipping point means that ownership of the goods in transit passes to the buyer when the
7. Actual physical flow may be impractical because many items are indistinguishable from one
8. The major advantage of the specific identification method is that it tracks the actual physical flow

9. No. Selection of an inventory costing method is a management decision. However, once a method
10. (a) FIFO.
(b) Average-cost.
(c) LIFO.
11. Gumby Company is using the FIFO method of inventory costing, and Pokey Company is using
the LIFO method. Under FIFO, the latest goods purchased remain in inventory. Thus, the

12. Davey Company may experience severe cash shortages if this policy continues. All of its net
current, higher costs. Because of this factor, net income under FIFO is sometimes referred to as
“phantom profits.”
13. Josh should know the following:
in which the price decline occurs.
(b) Market means current replacement cost, not selling price. For a merchandising company,
14. Taylor Music Center should report the CD players at $380 each for a total of $1,900. $380
at LCM is conservative.
15. Bonnie Stores should report the toasters at $27 each for a total of $540. The $27 is the lower of cost
16. (a) Kuzu Company’s 2014 net income will be understated $7,000; (b) 2015 net income will be

18. An inventory turnover that is too high may indicate that the company is losing sales opportunities
lost future sales.
19. Apple uses the first-in, first-out method for its inventories.
*20. Disagree. The results under the FIFO method are the same but the results under the LIFO
method are different. The reason is that the pool of inventoriable costs (cost of goods available for
sale) is not the same. Under a periodic system, the pool of costs is the goods available for sale for
the entire period, whereas under a perpetual system, the pool is the goods available for sale up to
the date of sale.
*21. In a periodic system, the average is a weighted average based on total goods available for sale for the
period. In a perpetual system, the average is a moving average of goods available for sale after
each purchase.
*22. Inventories must be estimated when: (1) management wants monthly or quarterly financial
statements but a physical inventory is only taken annually and (2) a fire or other type of casualty
makes it impossible to take a physical inventory.
Questions Chapter 6 (Continued)
*23. In the gross profit method, the average is the gross profit rate, which is gross profit divided by net
sales. The rate is often based on last year’s actual rate. The gross profit rate is applied to net sales
in using the gross profit method.
*24. The estimated cost of the ending inventory is $40,000:
Net sales ................................................................................................................. $400,000
Less: Gross profit ($400,000 X 35%) ...................................................................... 140,000
Estimated cost of goods sold ................................................................................... $260,000
Cost of goods available for sale ............................................................................... $300,000
Less: Cost of goods sold ........................................................................................ 260,000
Estimated cost of ending inventory .......................................................................... $ 40,000
Ending inventory at retail: $40,000 = ($120,000 – $80,000)
Cost-to-retail ratio: 70% =
$84,000
$120,000
Ending inventory at cost: $28,000 = ($40,000 X 70%)

(b) The goods in transit should not be included in the inventory count
because ownership by Farley does not occur until the goods reach
the buyer.
