    hello sir, sorry to bother you again

    question: an item of inventory which was purchased for $500 is expected to be sold for $1200, although $250 will need to be spent on it in order to achieve the sale. to replace the same item of inventory will cost $650.

    my doubt: what is replacement cost and why it not included in NRV

    From what you have written is seems that they expect to sell it. So why would they consider replacing it?

    I got this question on the open tuition mock exam. the explanation said

    cost $500

    NRV: 1200-250=$950

    lower :$500

    (replacement cost is not relevant )

    As I wrote in my previous reply, they are selling it and so they are not going to replace it.

    We value inventory always at the lower of cost and net realisable value. I do explain this rule in my lectures.
