Moore Company uses the LIFO cost flow assumption and carries Product A in inventory on December 31, 2019, at its unit cost of 9.50. Because of a sharp decline in demand for the product, the selling price was reduced to 10.00 per unit. Moores normal profit margin on Product A is 2.00, disposal costs are 1.00 per unit, and the replacement cost is 6.50.
