During the quarter the business completed the following transactions relating to the “TOZO T6” earbuds:

 

October 8

98 cases were purchased at a cost of $6,202 each. In addition, the business paid a freight charge of $248 cash on each case to have the inventory shipped from the point of purchase to their place of business.

October 31

The sales for October were 85 cases which yielded total sales revenue of $809,030. (25 of these cases were sold on account to three longstanding customers)

November 4

A new batch of 67 cases was purchased at a total cost of $465,650

November 10

5 of the cases purchased on November 4 were returned to the supplier, as they were not of the type nor model ordered.

November 30

During the month 60 cases were sold at a price of $10,350 each.

December 4

A customer, to whom 9 cases were sold during the first business day of November, returned 3 of the cases, as they were of another make and model.

Owing to an increased demand, a further 115 cases were purchased at a cost of $7,900 each; these were subject to a trade discount of 2% each.

December 30

121 cases were sold during December at a unit selling price of $11,085.

December 31

An actual count of inventory was carried out which revealed that there were 34 cases of the “TOZO T6” brand of merchandise in the store room.

Unless otherwise stated, assume that all purchases were on account and received on the dates stated.

Required:

(A)         Prepare a perpetual inventory record for this merchandise, using the first in, first out (FIFO) method of inventory valuation to determine SOUND CORE’s cost of goods sold for the quarter and the value of ending.

(B)         Given that selling, distribution and administrative costs associated with the TOZO T6 brand of earbuds for the quarter were $42,844, $38,120 and $157,076 respectively, prepare an income statement for SOUND CORE WIRELESS (TOZO T6) for the quarter ended December 31, 2021.

(C)         Journalize the transactions for the month of October, assuming the company uses a:

-               Periodic inventory system

-               Perpetual inventory system       

(D)         The West Indies School Book Shop sells T Shirts emblazoned with the school’s name and logo. The shirts cost $2,000 each and management estimates that 900 T Shirts will be sold during each month of the year. The annual holding cost for a unit of that inventory is estimated to be 1.5% of the purchase price. It costs the Book Shop $500 to place a single order.

The maximum sale for the Book Shop for any one week is 300 shirts and minimum sales 150 shirts. The supplier takes anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks to deliver the merchandise after the order is placed.

i)    Determine the highest number of shirts that should be purchased by the Gift Shop in order to minimize stock administration cost.
