Solution

The correct statements regarding merchandise available for sale during a period are:

  1. Beginning inventory + Net purchases = Merchandise available for sale

  2. Cost of goods sold + Beginning inventory = Merchandise available for sale

The first statement is correct because the merchandise available for sale during a period is the sum of the beginning inventory and the net purchases made during that period.

The second statement is also correct because the cost of goods sold is the cost of the merchandise that was actually sold during the period, and when you add this to the beginning inventory, you get the total merchandise that was available for sale.

The other two statements are incorrect. The sum of beginning inventory and ending inventory does not give the merchandise available for sale. Similarly, the sum of ending inventory and cost of goods sold does not give the merchandise available for sale.
