SUI sells presses. At December 31, 2011, SUI’s inventory amounted to $500,000. During the first week of January 2012, the company made only one purchase and one sale. These transactions were as follows:
Jan. Â 5Â Â Â Â Â Purchased 60 machines from Double, Inc. The total cost of these machines was
$40,000, terms 3/10, n/60.
Jan. 10Â Â Â Â Â Sold 30 different types of products on account to Air Corporation. The total sales price was $28,000, terms 5/10, n/90. The total cost of these 30 units to SUI was $10,000 (net of the purchase discount).
SUI has a full-time accountant and a computer-based accounting system. It records sales at the gross sales price and purchases at net cost and maintains subsidiary ledgers for accounts receiv- able, inventory, and accounts payable.
