Explanation / Answer

a1)

Price Index = Current cost / Base cost

= 7700000/6356000

= 1.2215

a2) Ending Inventory = Beginning Inventory Value at base price Index + Change in Inventory Value Base * Price Index

Beginning Inventory = 5978000*1 = 5978000

Change in Inventory = (6356000-5978000)*1.2215 = 457930

Ending Inventory = 5978000+457930

= $6435930

Cost of good sold = Opening inventory + Purchases - Ending inventory

= 5978000+18531800-6435930

= $18073870

Gross profit = Sales - Cost of good sold

   = 23595600-18073870

   = $5521730

End Inventory Units Current cost Base cost =7000+15700-14700        1,232,000.00    1,120,000.00 =9000+21200-25800=4400        1,848,000.00    1,540,000.00 =3300+10300-7000=6600        4,620,000.00    3,696,000.00        7,700,000.00    6,356,000.00
