NOTE: Calculation of Inventory purchase in Second Quarter

As per the question, second quarter closing inventory is equal to 75% of COGS of third quarter, therefore we are first required to calculate the same.

Sales of third quarter = $110,000 x 88% (Due to reduce of 12% in each quarter)

                                        = $96,800.

COGS as percentage of sales = 55%.

COGS for the third quarter = $96,800 x 55% x 88%( Due to reduce of 12% in each quarter)

                                                 =$46851. Approx.

Closing Inventory for the second quarter = $46851 x 75% = $35,139 Approx.

Inventory Purchase for second Quarter = COGS of second quarter – Opening Inventory + Closing Inventory.

                                                                      = $53,240 – $64,670 + $35,139 = $23,709.

Cash Paid for inventory Purchase = $23709 x 55% = $13,040 Approx.
