Answer:

Bramble Enterprises' Income Statement is attached.

Explanation:

The inventory valuation losses determined by comparing the inventory at cost with inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

In all cases, the net realizable values were lower than the costs.  Therefore, the total costs were adjusted to show the loss in income.

Answer:

The valuation of inventory at Lower of costs or net realizable value always calls for adjustments to our inventory balances.

As a standard, the impact of this valuation must go against the costs of sales as an added cost if the valuation is lower than the inventory costs. but a benefit by way of lowering the cost of sales if the valuation is higher than the cost of inventory.

For the 3 months respectively we see valued costs lower than the inventory costs, therefore cost of sales will go up by these adjustments:

Feb $2,850

March $1,596

April $798
