This amount is to be debited with the Inventory as it is considered to be part of the cost of acquiring the inventory. By not putting this cost with the inventory, ABC is undervaluing the inventory account which is an Asset account. The Assets are therefore understated.
2. The Specific Identification Method of inventory valuation is based on each individual unit purchased or sold. It does not group items and tracks each item from the moment it is purchased to the moment it is sold so the cost of the specific inventory is known. This method is used more often by businesses that deal with easily identifiable items such as Jewellers and Car dealers because each car is big enough to be tracked individually.

Answer:
I should invest in dollar deposits.
Explanation:
Current exchange rate is 1 euro = $1.08
Assuming I have y euro, the equivalent in dollar is $1.08y
Rate of return on dollar deposit = 2% = 0.02
Return on investment = $1.08y + (0.02 × $1.08y) = $1.08y + $0.0216y = $1.1016y
Rate of return on euro deposit = 1% = 0.01
Return on investment = y euro + (0.01 × y euro) = y euro + 0.01 y euro = 1.01y euro = 1.01y × $1.08 = $1.0908y
I should invest in dollar deposits because the return on investment is greater than euro deposits.
