Turquoise, Inc. is trying to decide whether to purchase identical inventory from one of the following suppliers: Supplier A Supplier B Cost $ 200 $ 220 Invoice terms 1/10, n/30 2/10, n/30 Shipping terms FOB shipping point FOB destination Shipping cost $ 20 $ 24 Required: Assume the company will pay within the discount period. What is the actual cost of the inventory if purchased from each supplier?

Answer :

Answer:

1. The actual cost of the inventory if purchased from supplier A: $218

2. The actual cost of the inventory if purchased from supplier B: $239.6

Explanation:

1. Supplier A cost $200

Credit terms of 1/10, n/30 means that 1% discount for the payment within 10 days and the full amount to be paid within 30 days.

Shipping cost $20. The company will pay within the discount period. Turquoise, Inc. pays and take the discount: 1% x $200 = $2

Actual cost of the inventory = Purchase cost + Shipping cost - Purchase discount = $200 + $20 - $2 = $218

2. Supplier B cost $220

Credit terms of 2/10, n/30 means that 2% discount for the payment within 10 days and the full amount to be paid within 30 days.

Shipping cost $24. The company will pay within the discount period. Turquoise, Inc. pays and take the discount: 2% x $220 = $4.4

Actual cost of the inventory = Purchase cost + Shipping cost - Purchase discount = $220 + $24 - $4.4 = $239.6

Tundexi

The actual cost of Supplier A is $218 while Supplier B is $215.60

The actual cost of inventory is required to be calculated if they are purchased from each supplier.

Given Information

                                    Supplier A             Supplier B

Cost                                  $200                    $220

Invoice terms               1/10, n/30               2/10, n/30

Shipping terms    FOB shipping point   FOB destination

Shipping cost                 $ 20                           $ 24

The formulae for Actual Cost is Invoice Cost Net of Discount + Shipping Cost in case of FOB Shipping terms

Supplier A Actual Cost = $200*99% + %20

Supplier A Actual Cost = $198 + $20

Supplier A Actual Cost = $218.00

Supplier B Actual Cost = $220*98%

Supplier B Actual Cost = $215.60
