Trial Balance, Income Statement, Statement of Financial Position. Award 1 mark for identifying the correct sequence.

Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 2/3

Montego Bay Trading Company reported the following: Opening inventory $24,000; Purchases $156,000; Carriage inwards $3,500; Returns outwards $4,200; Closing inventory $28,000. What is the cost of sales?

  1. $151,300
  2. $155,500
  3. $159,700
  4. $183,500
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: A$151,300
$151,300. Award 1 mark for correct calculation. Cost of Sales = Opening inventory + Net purchases + Carriage inwards - Closing inventory. Net purchases = $156,000 - $4,200 = $151,800. Cost of Sales = $24,000 + $151,800 + $3,500 - $28,000 = $151,300. B is incorrect as it excludes carriage inwards. C adds returns outwards instead of deducting. D ignores closing inventory.
