Problem - (LCNRV) Garcia Home Improvement Company installs replacement siding, windows, and louvered glass doors for single-family homes and condominium complexes. The company is in the process of preparing its annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2017. Jim Alcide, controller for Garcia, has gathered the following data concerning inventory.
At May 31, 2017, the balance in Garcia's Raw Materials Inventory account was $408,000, and Allowance to Reduce Inventory to NRV had a credit balance of $27,500. Alcide summarized the relevant inventory cost and market data at May 31, 2017, in the schedule below.
