For your first question, inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Here its cost is $3000 and its realizable value is 2700 (3000 – 300) and therefore it will be included at 2,700.
Control accounts are no longer examinable. Supplier statement reconciliations are examinable. This is all explained in our free lectures. The lectures are a complete free course for Paper FA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
