Solution

Sandhill Company

Determination of the amount per unit of the product 2005WSC to be reported applying lower-of-cost-or-market:

Net Realizable Value = selling price – cost to dispose

Selling price = $135

Cost to dispose = $6

NRV = 135 – 6 = $129

Replacement cost = $131

Cost = $132

Floor = NRV – profit margin = $129 – 40% x $135 = $75

The upper and lower limits - $129 and $75

The replacement cost cannot be used as this is above the upper limit of $129.

Also, the cost, $132 is higher than the upper limit of $129.

Hence, the product 2005WSC should be reported at Net Realizable Value of $129 per unit.
