Tri-State Bank and Trust is considering giving Wilfred Company a loan. Before doing so, management
decides that further discussions with Wilfred’s accountant may be desirable. One area of particular
concern is the inventory account, which has a year-end balance of $329,000. Discussions with the
accountant reveal the following.
1.Wilfred shipped goods costing $34,000 to Lilja Company, FOB shipping point, on December 28. The
goods are not expected to arrive at Lilja until January 12. The goods were not included in the physical
inventory because they were not in the warehouse.
2.The physical count of the inventory did not include goods costing $97,000 that were shipped to Wilfred
FOB destination on December 27 and were still in transit at year-end.
3.Wilfred received goods costing $25,000 on January 2. The goods were shipped FOB shipping point on
December 26 by Brent Co. The goods were not included in the physical count.
4.Wilfred shipped goods costing $45,000 to Jesse Co., FOB destination, on December 30. The goods were
received at Jesse on January 8. They were not included in Wilfred's physical inventory.
5.Wilfred received goods costing $45,000 on January 2 that were shipped FOB destination on December
29. The shipment was a rush order that was supposed to arrive December 31. This purchase was
included in the ending inventory of $329,000.
Determine the correct inventory amount on December 31.
Correct inventory: $ In its first month of operations, Weatherall Company made three purchases of merchandise in the
following sequence: (1) 160 units at $8, (2) 480 units at $9, and (3) 140 units at $10.
Assuming there are 330 units on hand, compute the cost of the ending inventory under the FIFO method
and LIFO method. Weatherall uses a periodic inventory system.

$ On December 1, Kiyak Electronics Ltd. has three DVD players left in stock. All are identical, all are priced
to sell at $165. One of the three DVD players left in stock, with serial #1012, was purchased on June 1 at
a cost of $110. Another, with serial #1045, was purchased on November 1 for $89. The last player, serial
#1056, was purchased on November 30 for $81.
Calculate the cost of goods sold using the FIFO periodic inventory method assuming that two of the
three players were sold by the end of December, Kiyak Electronics’ year-end.
Cost of goods sold: $ If Kiyak Electronics used the specific identification method instead of the FIFO method, how might it alter
its earnings by “selectively choosing” which particular players to sell to the two customers? What would
Kiyak’s cost of goods sold be if the company wished to minimize earnings? Maximize earnings?
Cost of goods sold would be $ if it wished to minimize the earnings. Cost of goods sold would be $ if it wished to maximize the earnings. Shawn Company had 234 units in beginning inventory at a total cost of $25,740. The company purchased
468 units at a total cost of $63,180. At the end of the year, Shawn had 176 units in ending inventory.
Compute the cost of the ending inventory and the cost of goods sold under FIFO, LIFO, and average-cost.
