Answer:
$360,000
Explanation:
Inventory item = 10,000 units
Cost per unit = $40
Selling price per unit = $60
Inventory should be recorded cost or net realization value which ever is less.
Net realization value = Selling price per unit - cost to sell
= $60 - $24
= $36 per unit
Therefore, the amount should the 10,000 units of inventory be reported at on the December 31, 2019 balance sheet is:
= 10,000 units × $36 per unit
= $360,000
