- **Hedge clippers:** 1,440 in inventory; cost is $50 each; replacement cost is $36 each; estimated sale price is $90 each; estimated distribution cost is $28 each; and normal profit is 20% of sale price.
a. Compute your inventory valuation by item and in total for the Tarry Company inventory reported above.
| Inventory valuation for edgers | $ ___________ |
| Inventory valuation for hedge clippers | $ ___________ |
| Total inventory valuation | $ ___________ |
b. Prepare the entry, if any, to report inventory at the lower-of-cost-or-market. Assume that all adjustments directly impact cost of goods sold and inventory.
