Lucas wagg, trading as fairlock fashions, ends his fianacial year on 31st march. At 1 April 2005 he had goods in inventory valued at $8,800. During the year to 31 March 2006, he purchased goods costing $48,000. Fashion goods which cost $2,100 were still held in inventory at 31 March 2006, and Lucas wagg believes that these could only now be sold at a sale price of $400. The goods still held in inventory at 31 March 2006 (including the fashion goods) had an original purchase cost of $7,600. Sales for the year were $81,400.
Calculate the gross profit of fairlock fashions for the year ended 31 March 2006.

closing inventory (5900)*
cOI (50900)
GP (81400-50900) 30500
*frst calculate NRV.ITS sale – cost
