Answer 1

Answer:cost of goods sold for  Liberty to enter on her Schedule C = $12,000

Explanation:

 Cost of goods sold (COGS) of a company are all the  costs ie( the raw materials and labor ) involved directly in the production of the particular  goods sold by the company.

Given

Beginning Inventory = $50,000

Purchases regarding Labour and materials= $20,000

Ending inventory = $58,000

Cost of Goods Sold is calculated as Beginning Inventory + Purchases During the Period – Ending Inventory

$50,000 + $20,000 - $58,000

$70,000 - $58,000

$12,000
