A company that has operated with a 30% average gross profit ratio for a number of years had $101,000 in sales during the first quarter of this year. If it began the quarter with $18,100 of inventory at cost and purchased $72,100 of inventory during the quarter, its estimated ending inventory by the gross profit method is:

 

$18,100.

 

$21,210.

$30,300.

 

$19,500.

 

Jackson Company has sales of $313,000 and cost of goods available for sale of $271,300. If the gross profit ratio is typically 30%, the estimated cost of the ending inventory under the gross profit method would be:

 

$52,200

 

$177,400

 

$41,700

 

$93,900

 

Impossible to determine from the information provided.

If sales for the period were $313,000 and the company’s typical gross profit ratio is 30%, gross profit would be approximately $93,900. That means that cost of goods sold must have been $219,100. Subtracting cost of goods sold of $219,100 from the $271,300 of cost of goods available for sale yields ending inventory of $52,200.
