To fill a ski club special order, Granite Bay Jet Ski purchased, on credit, four additional personal watercraft trailers from Starlight Sports. The invoice list price is $2,000.00 each for the trailers. Credit terms of 1/10, n/30 are offered by Starlight Sports and the total net purchase price (invoice S3488) is $7,920. This order has been shipped FOB destination.

Merchandise listed on the sales invoice:

Item STARLIGHT QUAD

Quantity 4

Stock Number AL900

Net cost per unit $_______

Calculate the net cost per unit and compare your answer to the amount listed by the program when the inventory data is entered

Explanation / Answer

Answer

Quantity 4 x $2000 each = $8,000
(-) 1 % discount (8000x1%) = $80

Net Invoice Value = 8000 – 80 = $7,920 for 4 quantities.

Inventory a/c debited by $7,920, and
Accounts payable a/c credited by $7,920
