Answer:
The subsidiary reports cost of goods sold at A. $660,000.
Explanation:
Cost of goods sold is the direct cost of producing or purchasing the goods sold by a business. The formula for cost of goods sold is as follows:
Cost of goods sold = Opening inventory + Purchases - Closing inventory
The subsidiary calculates its cost of goods sold as follows.
Opening inventory $120,000
Add: Purchases $720,000
Less: Closing inventory ($180,000)
Cost of goods sold $660,000
Therefore, the correct option is A. $660,000.
It may seem that franchise has many benefits since it allows for a person to open and operate a business without much knowledge of how to run a business and generally franchises are well advertised so not much marketing costs are needed, however negative impacts are much more, since you need to pay lifetime percentages for sales and operating under franchise as well as there is no room for creativity and too much dependence on a big business. Also the funds needed to open a franchise are much higher than same business but operating independently. So negative side is prevailing.
