Chapter 12, Problem 3A

You are an owner/bookkeeper in a country whose economy has been nearly destroyed. Goods are scarce. In fact, you have no goods to sell at the start of each day. You go out early each morning to purchase goods and haul them back to sell. At the end of the day, you have sold everything. Prepare a Cost of Goods Sold section for a day when you purchased $400 in goods. What conclusion can you draw?
