Question

The beginning and ending finished goods inventories of the Prize Ring manufacturing company were $84,000 and $79,750 respectively. If cost of goods sold equaled $71,400, what is the amount of cost of goods manufactured for this period

Answer 1

Answer:

$67,150

Explanation:

The computation of cost of goods manufactured for this period is shown below:-

Cost of goods sold = Beginning finished goods + Cost of goods manufactured - Ending finished goods

$71,400 = $84,000 + Cost of goods manufactured - $79,750

$71,400 = $4,250 + Cost of goods manufactured

Cost of goods manufactured = $71,400 - $4,250

= $67,150

Therefore for computing the cost of goods manufactured we simply applied the above formula.
