Purchased 85,000 additional units at a cost of $10 per unit. Terms of the purchases were 2/10, n/30, and 100% of the purchases were paid for within the 10-day discount period. The company uses the gross method to record purchase discounts. The merchandise was purchased f. o.b. shipping point and freight charges of $0.40 per unit were paid by Johnson.

1,700 units purchased during the year were returned to suppliers for credit. Johnson was also given credit for the freight charges of $0.40 per unit it had paid on the original purchase. The units were defective and were returned two days after they were received.

Required:

1. Complete the below table to determine the ending inventory and cost of goods sold for 2018.

2. Assuming that operating expenses other than those indicated in the above transactions amounted to $164,000, determine income before income taxes for 2018.

A.

Beginning inventory = 17,000 units

2018 Purchases = (85,000 - 1,700 - 80,000) = 3,300 units

Ending inventory = 20,300 units

Beginning inventory = $153,000

Add: Net Purchases = ($850,000 + $34,000 - $17,000 - $17,000 - $680) = $849,320

Cost of goods available for sales = $1,002,320

Less Ending inventory = [($849,320 + $153,000 - ($10.20 x 80,000 units sold)] = $186,320

Cost of Goods sold = $816,000.

Note: The net cost of purchases is calculated as Purchases + Freight In – Cash Discounts – Purchases Returns and allowance

Note: Net purchases cost per unit is $849,320 divided by 83,300 units = $10.20

B.

Sales = $1,440,000

Deduct: Cost of goods sold = $816,000

Gross Profit = $624,000

Deduct: Operating expense = $164,000

Income before tax = $460,000

Explanation:

Johnsons company

The periodic inventory method is an inventory method that allows a business update its inventory position only after a physical count. Until a physical count is done, all purchases are entered in an Asset Account (named Purchases) and when a physical count is conducted the balance is transferred to the inventory opening balance.

LIFO indicates how we utilize our stocks. Last in first out: meaning the last stock to be purchased should be the first introduced into the production process or sold out.

Opening inventory = 17,000 units x $9 = $153,000
