Respuesta :

Answer:

$2,600

Explanation:

As we know that the inventory should be recorded at a cost or market value which ever is lower

In the given case,

The cost is

= 200 units ×$16 per unit

= $3,200

And, the market value is

= 200 units × $13 per unit

= $2,600

So as we can see that the lower value is $2,600 and the same is to be reported on the balance sheet
