Answer:

a. $85,000.

Explanation:

The formula to compute the cost of goods sold is shown below:

Cost of goods sold = Opening inventory + Purchase - ending inventory

Since in the question the cost of goods sold is not given, so first we have to find it.

Let we assume the cost of good sold be X

And, the net sales is $1,500,000 and Percentage markup on cost 66.67%

By this information, we have to make the equation which is shown below:

$1,500,000 = X × (66.67% + 100)

$1,500,000 = 66.67X + 100X

$1,500,000 = 166.67%X

So, X = $1,500,000 ÷ 166.67% = $899,982

The other items values remain the same

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

$899,982 = $250,000 + $750,000 - ending inventory

So, the ending inventory = $100,018

So, the estimated ending inventory = Ending inventory - undamaged inventory

= $100,018 - $15,000

= $85,018

topjm [15]

Answer:

Hilary's adjusted basis at the end of the year $0

Explanation:

Hillary's base in general business income and tax-free income grows and then deducts . He understood the cash flow from his original cash disbursement and partnership debt reduction.  Hillary must report a capital gain of $ 12,000 on a zero interest basis in her partnership interest, since his actual and perceived cash distribution exceeds his base after raising it through a positive adjustment for the year.

$10,000 + $5,000 - $3,000 - $10,000 - $2,000  = 0

16. Which of the following cuts is ideal for smoking?
Ludmilka [50]

[ Answer ]

\boxed{Brisket}

[ Explanation ]

Brisket - Cut from breast or lower chest. Brisket comes from a cow or veal

Brisket is ideal for smoking because of its high fat content. When smoking meat, if the meat does not have lots of fat and is thing, the smoking process can dry out the meat. With brisket, the meat is very fat, causing the meat not to dry out and getting a tender juicy flavor.

When lighting a campfire or barbecue, you may notice lots of smoke. The smoke may affect your breathing, make you thirsty, or dry you out. This is the same affect of the meats. The smoke provides lots more flavor for the meat, and dries it out, if there is not enough fat on the meat.
