During a period, an RV company purchased three vehicles for $33,000, $46,000, and $24,000, and sold two of them for $125,000. Using the specific identification method of costing inventory, they identified the $46,000 vehicle as still in stock. Calculate the gross profit for the period.

Respuesta :

Answer: $68,000

Explanation:

If the inventory that remains is the $46,000 then that means that the cars costing $33,000 and $24,000 have been sold.

With specific identification, the actual prices of the stock are used so the cost of goods sold is:

= 24,000 + 33,000

= $57,000

The gross profit is therefore:

= Sales - Cost of goods sold

= 125,000 - 57,000

= $68,000
