Answer:

$505,000

Explanation:

Given that

Beginning  Inventory value = $500,000

Cost index = 1

Ending inventory value = $535,000

Cost index = 1.06

So the value of ending inventory by considering the cost index 1.06 is

= $500,000 × 1.06

= $530,000

Now the increase in value is

= $535,000 - $530,000

= $5,000

So, the inventory should be reported at

= $500,000 + $5,000

= $505,000
