Due to technological changes in the market, Garcia would be able to replace its inventory for $16,500. Required: 1. Using the lower of cost or market method, what amount should Garcia report for inventory on its balance sheet at the end of the year? 2. Prepare the journal entry required to value the inventory at the lower of cost or market.arrow_forwardLIFO and Inventory Pools On January 1, 2016, Grover Company changed its inventory cost flow method to the LIFO cost method from the FIFO cost method for its raw materials inventory. It made the change for both financial statement and income tax reporting purposes. Grover uses the multiple-pools approach under which it groups substantially identical raw materials into LIFO inventory pools. It uses weighted average costs in valuing annual incremental layers. The composition of the December 31, 2018, inventory for the Class F inventory pool is as follows: Inventory transactions for the Class F inventory pool during 2019 were as follows: On March 2, 2019, 4,800 units were purchased at a unit cost of 13.50 for 64,800. On September 1, 2019, 7,200 units were purchased at a unit cost of 14.00 for 100,800. A total of 15,000 units were used for production during 2019. The following transactions for the Class F inventory pool took place during 2020: On January 11, 2020, 7,500 units were purchased at a unit cost of 14.50 for 108,750. On May 14, 2020, 5,500 units were purchased at a unit cost of 15.50 for 85,250. On December 29, 2020, 7,000 units were purchased at a unit cost of 16.00 for 112,000. A total of 16,000 units were used for production during 2020. Required: 1. Prepare a schedule to compute the inventory (units and dollar amounts) of the Class F inventory pool at December 31, 2019. Show supporting computations in good form. 2. Prepare a schedule to compute the cost of Class F raw materials used in production for the year ended December 31, 2019. 3. Prepare a schedule to compute the inventory (units and dollar amounts) of the Class F inventory pool at December 31, 2020. Show supporting computations in good form.arrow_forwardBhushan Company has been using LIFO for inventory purposes because it would prefer to keep gross profits low for tax purposes. In its second year of operation (20-2), the controller pointed out that this strategy did not appear to work and suggested that FIFO cost of goods sold would have been higher than LIFO cost of goods sold for 20-2. Is this possible? REQUIRED Using the information provided, compute the cost of goods sold for 20-1 and 20-2 comparing the LIFO and FIFO methods.arrow_forward
