I've been stuck on this two part problem for two days and thebook says to:
a) determine the store's cost of goods sold for august. Also compute the GP for august. When I did it I kept getting$1,456 but the answer key shows $2,409.
b) what is the cost of the stores august 31 inventory ofrunning shoes? when I did this one I got $1,484 but the answer key shows $2,437.
