Consider the following information about production in quarter 1 of 2019. Firm T produces 600 tires at a cost of $28 each, and sells 580 tires to Firm B at a cost of $39 each. Firm B produces 290 bicycles at a total cost of $330 each, and sells 280 bicycles to consumers for $400 each. In this simple economy, what is the value of inventory investment

$3,860

Explanation:

Value of stock at the end of Firm T:

Firm T has stock of 20 tires at the end of the year

The cost price is $28 per tire

Value = Closing stock * Cost price of each tIres

Value = 20 * $28

Value = $560

Value of stock at the end of Firm B:

Firm B has stock of 10 bicycles at the end of the year

The cost price is $330 each

Value = Closing stock * Cost price of each bicycle

Value = 10 * $330

Value = $3,300

Value of the inventory investment = Value of stock at the end of Firm T + Value of stock at the end of Firm B

Value of the inventory investment = $560 + $3,300

Value of the inventory investment = $3,860
