Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The manufacturer sells the chairs to Nash for a lump sum of $161,595.

Purchase:

Lounge chairs 1,080

Armchairs 810

Straight chairs 1,890

Sell:

Lounge chairs: 540 units at $90 = 48600

Armchairs: 270 units at $80 = 21600

Straight chairs: 324at $50 = 16200

We need to determine the cost of sold goods. First, we will ponderate the lump sum cost for each type of chair.

Total units = 3780

Lounge = 1080/3780 = 0.29

Armchairs = 810/3780 = 0.21

Straight = 1890/3780 = 0.5

Total cost = 161,595.

Lounge = 0.29 * 161595 = $46,862.55 = $43.39

Armchairs = 0.21*161595 = $33,934.95 = $41.89

Straight = 0.5 * 161595 = $80,797.5 = $42.75

Sales = $86400

COGS = (43.39*540) + (41.89*270) + (42.75*324) = 48,591.9

Gross profit = 37,808.1

Inventory = 161595 - 48491.9 = %113,103.1
