QUESTION 3: INVENTORY VALUATION                                   (45 marks; 25 minutes)

George Grande is the majority shareholder and CEO of Grande Ltd. The company
supplies hotels with cabinets and lamps.

The periodic system is used. The year-end is 30 September 2019.

REQUIRED:

CABINETS

3.1     Calculate the value of closing stock for cabinets on 30 September 2019 using
        the first-in first-out method.                                                           (6)

3.2     In 2019, the company decided to extend the target market and to grant trade
        discounts to increase sales.

        3.2.1    Calculate the % mark-up achieved in 2019.                                       (4)

        3.2.2    Provide TWO points (with figures) to prove that this decision achieved its
                 aims.                                                                           (4)

        3.2.3    The CEO feels that this decision also negatively affected the company.
                    Provide TWO points (with figures) to support his opinion.                   (4)
                    Give the directors advice to solve this problem. Explain TWO points.        (2)

LAMPS

3.3     Calculate the stockholding period for lamps (use closing stock).                         (3)

3.4     George is concerned about the control of lamps. An investigation revealed that
        the store manager was supplying local boarding houses with lamps without
        documentation.
            Calculate the number of missing lamps.                                              (5)
            Give TWO suggestions to solve this problem.                                         (4)

TELEVISION SETS

3.5     During April 2019, while George was in hospital, Bruce Swann (the chief
        financial officer) decided to include television sets in their product range. He was
        able to secure bulk discounts from Roseway on two TV set models, namely LYN
        and KYA.

        Calculate the value of the closing stock of TV sets on 30 September 2019 using
        the specific identification method.                                                      (7)

3.6     An employee of Roseway told George that Bruce received a 10% 'commission'
        from Roseway for buying excess stock. George wants to discuss this at the next
        board meeting.

        Explain THREE different concerns that George would have about this problem.              (6)
