2
3 2018 Cost Retail
4 Beginning Inventory 180000 292950
5 Ratio of cost to retail =E4/G4
6 Add Net Purchases 736000 911000
7 Add Freight-in 0
8 Add Net Markups 9000
9 Deduct Net Markdowns 0
10 Totals (Excluding beginning inventory) =SUM(E6:E9) =SUM(G6:G9) =SUM(G6:G9)
11 Ratio of cost to retail =E10/G10
12 Goods Available for sale =E10+E4 =G10+G4 =G10+G4
13
14 Deduct Sales 878000
15 Less Employee discount 0
16 Net Sales =F14+F15 =F14+F15
17 Ending Inventory at Retail (price index 1.05) =G12-G16 =G12-G16
18 Ending Inventory at Retail (price index of 1.0) =G17/1.05 =G17/1.05
19 Beginning inventory at base year price =G4 =G4
20 Inventory increase (retail) from beginning period =G18-G19 =G18-G19

22 Calculation of Ending inventory for 2018
23 Ending invetory at retail at base price Base Year Prices Price index Cost to Retail Ratio Ending Inventory LIFO Cost
24 =G18 2017 =G19 1 =E5 =F24*G24*H24 =F24*G24*H24
25 2018 =G20 1.05 =E11 =F25*G25*H25 =F25*G25*H25
26 =SUM(I24:I25) =SUM(I24:I25)
27 Ending inventory LIFO Cost =I26
28
29 Hence ending inventory at the end of 2018 is =E27
30 Thus second option is correct.
