FAValuation for inventory

Yyaaseen12y ago
hi everyone, i came across a question where inventory in the balance sheet is 3000 and in the additional information there is: Some inventory items included in the draft balance sheet at cost 500 were sold after the reporting date for 400 with selling expenses of 40.. should i value the inventory at 2860 in the balance sheet?? Can anyone please help me??

Yes - you are correct :-) (The items mentioned should be valued at the net realisable value of 360 because this is lower than cost. So the total value of the inventory should indeed by 2860)
