Answer:
$56400
Explanation:
The value of ending inventory is $56400 as we sales are 25% above the actual cost of goods sold therefore first we find Cost of goods sold.
Gross profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold
G.P = $225000 - CGS
0.25% of CGS = $225000 - CGS
0.25 CGS + 1 CGS = $225000
1.25 CGS = $225000
CGS = $225000/1.25
CGS = $180000
We know that
Opening inventory $75000
Add purchases $161400
Total goods Available for sale $236400
Less: Cost of Good Sold $ 180000
Ending inventory = $56400
