Answer:

1.Gross profit realized during 2020 = $8645

2.The amount of inventory of unsold straight chairs = $29000

Explanation:

1. In 2020 Pretenders Furniture Company purchases a carload of wicker chairs at a cost of $59850 lump sum

The total number of chairs purchased per type is;

Lounge chairs 400

Armchairs   300

Straight chairs 700

Total number of chairs purchased = 400+300+700= 1400 chairs

In 2020, Pretenders sells

Lounge chairs 200 at $90 each = 200*90=$18000

Armchairs 100 at $80 each= 100*80 =$ 8000

Straight chairs 120 at $50 each = 120*50 =$600

Total selling price = $18000+$8000+600=$26600

Total number of chairs sold = 200+100+120 =420 chairs

Estimating the lump sum amount that 420 chairs could generate to the same manufacturer;

For 1400 chairs= $59850 ---lump sum amount

For 420 chairs=? ---apply cross product

(420*59850)/1400 = $17955

Selling price for 420 chairs = $26600

Gross profit realized during 2020 = $26600-$17955 =$8645

2.The amount of inventory of unsold straight chairs is the value of the inventory using the market value during that effective time.

The market value for straight chair =$50

Straight chairs remaining 580 at $50 each = 580*50 =$29000
