Principles of Accounting: Inventory Question
#1
In the official study guide, question 40 is as follows:

Net purchases for the year amounted to $80,000. The merchandise inventory at the beginning of the year was $19,000. On sales of $120,000, a 30 percent gross profit on the selling price was realized. The inventory at the end of the year was ($15,000)

I don't know how or why it's $15,000.
