the product was shipped and the customer billed on January 4, 2024.

2. On December 27, 2023, merchandise costing P11,648 was received and recorded. The invoice accompanying
the merchandise was marked "on consignment."

3. The company received merchandise costing P4,625 on January 2, 2024. The invoice, which was recorded on
January 3, 2024, showed shipment was made under FOB shipping point on December 31, 2023. The merchandise
was not included in the inventory because it was not on hand when the physical count was taken.

included in the inventory because the sale was with a repurchase agreement that requires Goat to buy back the
inventory on January 15, 2024.

stated at cost before any year-end adjustments.
