Ending inventory using the conventional retail inventory method

Expert Solution

1. Calculate the retail value of the goods available for sale

Retail value of goods available for sale = Retail value of opening inventory + Retail value of goods purchased.

= $390400 + (1,447600 - 79400) =	$ 1,758,600.00

2. Total sales during the period = $(1,426,100-97300)	$ 1,328,800.00

3. Calculate total cost = Opening Inventory + cost of purchases

= $251100 + (906368 - 60,000) + 42,300 =	$ 1,139,768.00

4. Cost to retail Percentage = $1139768/1758600	65%	Approx..

5. Difference between Retail value of goods available for sale & Total sales during the period

= 1758600-1328800	$ 429,800.00

6. Ending Inventory under retail inventory method = $429800 x Cost retail percent(64%)

= 429800*65%	$ 279,370.00

NOTE: In the given question, purchase discount is not considered for total cost since it is a cash discount received on payment to suupliers and therefore does not impact total cost. Moreover, markups and markdowns is the percent earned over the cost and therefore will not be considered for calculating the revenue as gross sales already includes and excludes both of them.
