Gross Margin Computations and Inventory Costs

On January 15, 20X4, Violet Muir valued her inventory at cost, $41,000. Her statements are based on the calendar year, so you find it necessary to establish an inventory figure as of January 1, 20X4.

Calculate the inventory cost as of January 1, assuming that goods are priced to provide a 24% gross profit.
