Medical Technology was organised on April 1 of the current year to produce and market a revolutionary new heart monitor. The company's accounting system was set up by Jacob's brother-in-law who had taken an accounting course about 10 years ago.

"We may not last a year if the insurance company doesn't pay the $227,000 it owes us for the 4,000 monitors lost in the lorry accident last week," said Staci. "The agent says our claim is inflated, but that's a lot of rubbish."

Just after the end of the quarter, a lorry carrying 4,000 monitors wrecked and burned, destroying the entire load. The monitors were part of the 20,000 units completed during the quarter ended June 30. They were in a warehouse awaiting sale at quarter-end and were sold and shipped on July 3 (this sale is not included on the income statement above). The trucking company's insurer is liable for the cost of the goods lost. Jacobs's brother-in-law has determined this cost as follows

Total costs for the quarter= $1,135,000 / 20,000 units = $56.75 per unit

Monitors produced during the quarter

4,000 units x $56.75 per unit = $227,000
