What is ending inventory assuming Northwest uses the gross method to record purchases?

$210,596

Explanation:

GIVEN the following ;

Beginning inventory = $105,000

Inventory Purchased = $480,000

Discount = 3% = 0.03

Freight charge = $9,100

Returned merchandise = $3,200 Cost of goods sold = $366,000

Calculate the ending inventory :

Discount = $(480,000 - 3200) × 0.03

Discount = $14,304

Cost of goods sold = (Beginning inventory + inventory purchased + Freight - ending inventory) - (returned merchandise + discount)

$366,000 = $(105,000 + 480,000 + 9,100 - ending inventory) - $( 3,200 + 14,304)

$366,000 = $594,100 - ending inventory - $17,504

$366,000 = $576,796 - ending inventory

Ending inventory = $(576,596 - 366,000) = $210,596
