Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

B. $83,000

Explanation:

Inventory value at adoption = $50,000

Increase in inventory using base year price = $30,000

Current year Price increase = 10%

Increase price = $30,000 + ( $30,000 x 10% )

Increased price inventory = $30,000 + $3,000

Increased price inventory = $33,000

Amount of Inventory reported on balance = Inventory value at adoption + Increase price Inventory

Amount of Inventory to be reported on balance = $50,000 + $33,000

Amount of Inventory to be reported on balance = $83,000
