Answer:
Inventory Cost = $14,500
Explanation:
Using the lower of cost or market method implies firstly valuing the inventory at the purchased cost (historical cost). But as the value of a good can change and if the price at which the inventory can be sold falls below its net realizable value the loss (and new value) must be recorded. It is a method for adjusting asset values in subsequent reporting periods.
Answer and Explanation:
1. The amount of goodwill is shown below:
= Purchase price - the market value of net assets
= $6,000,000 - ($17,000,000 + $13,000,000)
= $2,000,000
2. Now the journal entry for purchase is
Assets $17,000,000
Goodwill $2,000,000
To Liabilities $13,000,000
To Cash $6,000,000
(Being the purchase is recorded)
For recording this we debited the assets and goodwill as it increased the assets and credited the liabilities and cash as it also increased the liabilities and decreased the assets
