None of them should include these goods in inventory.

Answer 1

Solution 17:

Option D is correct.

Explantion

Debit Cash $5,684
Debit Sales discounts $116
Credit Accounts Receivable $5,800


Sales discount = $5,800 × .02 = $116
Cash: $5,800 - $116 = $5,684

Solution 19:

Cost of goods sold $600; Ending inventory $200

Explanation

Cost of goods sold= 100*$5+(125-100)*$4=$600

Ending Inventory=Beginning Inventory + Purchase-Sale=100+75-125=50units

Cost of Ending Inventory=50 units *$4= $200

Solution 24:

Beyer

On 31st December, the real owner would be company Beyer because Sellar has transferred all risks and rewards relating to the inventory before 31st December. Therefore, Beyer should include cost of the inventory in its 31st December inventory.
