Compute the inventory to be reported on December 31, 2016, in accordance with procedures necessary to convert from the conventional retail method to the LIFO retail method beginning January 1, 2017. Assume that the retail value of the December 31, 2016, inventory was $60,300.(Round ratios for computational purposes to 2 decimal places, e.g. 78.72% and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 28,987.)

The inventory to be reported on December 31, 2011 - $

Without prejudice to your solution to part (b), assume that you computed the December 31, 2016, inventory (retail value $60,300) under the LIFO retail method at a cost of $36,482. Compute the cost of the store's 2017 and 2018 year-end inventories under the dollar-value LIFO method.(Round ratios for computational purposes to 2 decimal places, e.g. 78.72% and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 28,987.)
