Arbor Corporation had reported the following amounts at December 31, 2014: Sales revenue $184,000: ending inventory $11,600: beginning inventory $17,200: purchases $60,400: purchases discounts $3,000: purchase returns and allowances $1,100: freight-in $600: freight-out $900. Calculate the cost of goods available for sale.

Answer 1

Answer:

The cost of goods available for sale is $74100.

Explanation:

The cost of goods available for sale is the total cost of the inventory that a business has available during a period of time for sale. The cost of goods available for sale is calculated by adding the beginning inventory with the cost of goods purchased.

The cost of goods purchased during the year = 60400 - 3000 - 1100 + 600 = $56900

The cost of goods available for sale = Beginning inventory + cost of goods purchased

The cost of goods available for sale =  17200 + 56900 = $74100
