Springer Anderson Gymnastics prepared its annual financial statements dated December 31. The company reported its inventory using the LIFO inventory costing method but did not compare the cost of its ending inventory to its market value (replacement cost). The preliminary income statement follows:

Sales Revenue		$ 120,000
Cost of Goods Sold
Beginning Inventory	$ 10,000
Purchases	81,000
Goods Available for Sale	91,000
Ending Inventory	18,800
Cost of Goods Sold		72,200

Operating Expenses		26,000
Income from Operations		21,800
Income Tax Expense (30%)		6,540
Net Income		$ 15,260

		Purchase Cost
Item	Quantity	Per Unit	Total	Replacement Cost per Unit
A	2,500	$ 2.00	$ 5,000	$ 3.00
B	650	2.00	1,300	1.00
C	2,500	1.00	2,500	.50
D	2,500	4.00	10,000	2.00
			$ 18,800
