Answer:

Brunswick Hat Company

The estimated ending inventory = $85,400

The estimated cost of goods sold for 2021 = $117,100

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                       Cost         Retail

Beginning inventory $ 81,000   $ 150,000

Net purchases            121,500     278,000

Net markups                                     8,000

Net markdowns                             (16,000)

Goods available       202,500     420,000

Net sales                                      228,000

Ending inventory at retail price   192,000

Ending inventory

at cost                       85,400

Cost of goods sold    117,100

Retail price index, 12/31/2021            1.20

Base year cost to retail price % = $81,000/$150,000 = 54%

2021 cost to retail price % = $121,500/$278,000 = 44%

Ending inventory at cost (= $160,000 ($192,000/1.20))    

$150,000 * 54% =  $81,000

  $10,000 * 44% =      4,400

$160,000            = $85,400
