               CHAPTER 14 – ACCOUNTING FOR INVENTORY


               14.1 $1,000

                     The inventory should be valued at the lower of cost and NRV


                     Cost is $1,000

                     NRV is $2,400 – $500 = $1,900

                     The correct valuation is therefore $1,000


               14.2 $226,560

                     The number of units held at the year-end is 2360 (2,400 – 40)

                     The sale on 31 December provides evidence of a NRV $4 below cost.
                     Therefore each unit should be valued at its NRV.

                     2,360 units × $96 = $226,560
