Question
On the 27th of April beginning inventory in a warehouse was 200 units. The storekeeper despatched 50 units to customer A, 121 units to customer B and 17 units to customer C. If he received 19 units from production, what will be his beginning inventory on the 28th of
Solution
The beginning inventory on the 27th of April was 200 units.
The storekeeper dispatched a total of 50 units to customer A, 121 units to customer B, and 17 units to customer C. This is a total of 50 + 121 + 17 = 188 units dispatched.
The storekeeper also received 19 units from production.
So, to calculate the beginning inventory on the 28th of April, you subtract the total units dispatched from the beginning inventory, and then add the units received from production.
This is calculated as follows: 200 (beginning inventory) - 188 (units dispatched) + 19 (units received) = 31 units.
So, the beginning inventory on the 28th of April will be 31 units.
