Answer:

Ace Incorporated

The cost of inventory as of June 30 is:

= $4,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

June 1 Beginning Inventory $0

June 3 Purchased goods for $4,100

June 5 Returned goods costing($1,100)

June 6 Purchased goods for $1,000

June 30 Total available $4,000

b) The cost of inventory is made up of the cost of purchasing the inventory minus purchase returns. In this instance, there were no sales during June. This would have reduced the cost of the inventory available as of June 30.
