Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is $543,000

Explanation:

According to the given scenario, the calculation of the ending inventory is as follows:

= Inventory on hand + merchandise purchased F.O.B shipping point + F.O.B destination

= $350,000 + $118,000 + $75,000

= $543,000

The goods held on consignment i.e. not involved is not relevant

Thus, the  calculation of the ending inventory is $543,000
