Question

Laredo Boot Company makes specialty boots for the rodeo circuit. On December 31, 2008, the company had (a) 300 pairs of boots in finished goods inventory and (b) 1,400 heels at a cost of $16 each in raw materials inventory. During 2009, the company purchased 46,000 additional heels at $16 each and man- ufactured 16,800 pairs of boots.
Determine the unit and dollar amounts of raw materials inventory in heels at December 31, 2009.

Answer 1

Answer:

Ending inventory 3,000 units

Ending Inventory $24,000

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to assume 2 heels are used to get a pair of boots complete

16,600 boots x 2 = 33,200 heels used in production

Then:

beginning                   1,200 at 8

purchase                 35,000 at 8

used in production (33,200)

Ending Inventory 3,000 at 8 = 24,000
