Explanations:
Step 1: Calculation of corrected COGS and inventory
COGS 2020 | 228,000 |
Less: consignment inventory | 10,000 |
Less: purchase of next year | 15,000 |
Corrected COGS | $203,000 |
COGS 2021 | 247,000 |
Add: Purchase not recorded | 15,000 |
262,000 | |
Merchandise inventory 2020 | 44,000 |
Less: consignment inventory | 10,000 |
Less: purchase of next year | 15,000 |
Corrected amount | 19,000 |
Merchandise inventory 2021 | 52,000 |
Less: consignment inventory | 10,000 |
Corrected amount | 42,000 |
Step 2: Calculation of inventory turnover ratios
Inventory turnover ratio = COGS ÷ Average inventory
a.) Incorrect inventory turnover
2020:
= 228,000 ÷ (35,000 + 44,000 ÷ 2)
= 228,000 ÷ 39,500
= 5.77
2021:
=247,000 ÷ (44,000 + 52,000 ÷ 2 )
=247,000 ÷ 48,000
= 5.15
a.) correct inventory turnover
2020:
= 203,000 ÷ (35,000 + 19,000 ÷ 2)
= 228,000 ÷ 27,000
= 8.44
2021:
=262,000 ÷ (19,000 + 42,000 ÷ 2 )
=247,000 ÷ 30,500
= 8.1
