Choice Chicken grows and processes chickens. Each chicken is disassembled into five main parts. Choice Chicken is computing the ending inventory values for its July 31, 2017, balance sheet. Ending inventory amounts on July 31 are 20 pounds of breasts, 7 pounds of wings, 10 pounds of thighs, 7 pounds of bones, and 3 pounds of feathers. Choice Chicken's management wants to use the sales value at splitoff method.
