Begining inventory                                                        $156,000                                $240,000

Plus: Purchases                                                               510,000                                 752,000

         Freight in                                                                     6,200

less: purchase returns                                                     (6,200)                                     (3650)

plus: net markups                                                                                                              6250

                                                                                                                                            $994,600

goods avaialbel for sale (excuding beginning)        510,000                                       754,600

goods avaialble for sale ( incuding beginning)       660,000                                       994,600

base year cost to retail %            156,000/240,000 =65%

2016 cost to retail %                   510,000/754,600 = 67.59%

less: mark downs                                                                                                             (4600)

$462,800                                    $462,800/1.25 = $370,240               240,000( base *1*65%) = 156,000

                                                                                                                  130,240 *1.25 *67.59% = 110,037

Total ending inventory at dollar value LIFO retaile method                                                       $266,037
