Explanation / Answer

1) PERIOD COSTS = SELLING EXPENSES + ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

= 16000 + 21000

   = $37000

2) COST OF GOODS SOLD = SALES - GROSS MARGIN

   = 360000 - 220000

   = $140000

COST OF GOODS SOLD = COST OF GOODS MANUFACTURED + BEGINNING INVENTORY - ENDING INVENTORY

140000 = 120000 + BEGINNING INVENTORY - 30000

BEGINNING INVENTORY = $50000

3) COST OF GOODS SOLD = COST OF GOODS MANUFACTURED + BEGINNING INVENTORY - ENDING INVENTORY

= 543000 + 25000 - 23000

COST OF GOODS SOLD = $545000

4) COST OF GOODS SOLD = BEGINNING INVENTORY + PURCHASES - CLOSING INVENTORY

66000 = 14000 + PURCHASES - 16000

PURCHASES = $68000

5) PRIME COSTS CONSISTS OF DIRECT MATERIAL COMBINED WITH DIRECT LABOUR.

6) CONVERSION COSTS = DIRECT LABOUR + MANUFACTURING OVERHEAD

   = 14000 + 38000

CONVERSION COSTS = $52000
