    At 31 March 20X7 Tentacle had 12,000 units of product W32 in inventory, included at cost of $6 per unit. During April and May 20X7 units of W32 were being sold at a price of $5.40 each, with sales staff receiving a 15% commission on the sales price of the product.

    At what amount should inventory of product W32 be recognised in the financial statements of Tentacle as at 31 March 20X7?

    Ans: NRV – (12,000 × (5.4 × 85%)) = $55,080

    Does this mean that a fall in NRV and commission charges after the reporting date qualifies as an adjusting event because I don’t understand what’s happening here, sir?

    Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value

    It appears that subsequent events show that net realisable value is not in fact $6 but is $4.59 and that is the unit price that should be applied

    OK?
