b. $600,000
c. $610,000
d. $625,000

Respuesta :

Answer:

d. $625,000

Explanation:

cost of goods available for sale = cost of goods manufactured during the current period + finished goods inventory at the beginning of the period

  • cost of goods manufactured during the current period = $600,000
  • finished goods inventory at the beginning of the period = $25,000

cost of goods available for sale = $600,000 + $25,000 = $625,000

cost of goods sold = cost of goods available for sale - ending inventory = $625,000 - $40,000 = $585,000
